Summary:

Switzerland County School Corp serves 1,422 students across four schools: two PK–6 elementaries, one 7–8 middle school, and one 9–12 high school in a high-poverty Indiana community where free/reduced lunch ranges from 50.33% at the high school to 61.61% at Switzerland County Elementary. The district ranks 262nd of 374 in Indiana, in the 30th percentile with 2 stars. Per-student spending ranges from $9,869 to $12,670, and student-teacher ratios range from 13.0 to 21.8.

Among the standout schools, Switzerland County Middle School has the highest current rank percentile, 49th percentile with 2 stars. Its all-grades ELA is 42.65% proficient, above the district’s 33.33%, and 7th grade ELA is 50%, above Indiana’s 41.7%; math is weaker at 22.55%. Jefferson-Craig Elementary School has the lowest chronic absenteeism at 8.5%, compared with 16.5% districtwide and 16.7% statewide, and the lowest spending at $9,869, though its 5th grade math is 14.29%. Switzerland County Elementary School has the highest poverty rate at 61.61% and highest spending at $12,670; its all-grades math is 33.91%, above the district’s 26.14%, but all-grades ELA is 23.7%, and its rank fell to 32nd percentile. Switzerland County Senior High School graduates 89.4% of students, close to the state’s 89.7%, but SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing is 41.59% vs. 51.9% state, SAT Mathematics is 7.08% vs. 25.6%, chronic absenteeism is 24.1%, and its rank is 24th percentile with 1 star.

Overall, math is the district’s biggest academic weakness, especially the high school’s SAT math and the middle school’s 22.55%. Middle school ELA is a genuine bright spot. Attendance is dramatically uneven: Jefferson-Craig is strong, while the high school’s 24.1% and middle school’s 19.4% are above state. The high school’s near-state graduation rate contrasts with low college-readiness test scores. The two elementaries have different profiles, and spending does not show a simple relationship with outcomes. Recent declines at Switzerland County Elementary and the middle school are worth watching.
