Summary:
The Tell City-Troy Township School Corp district in Indiana operates two schools: William Tell Elementary School and Tell City Junior-Senior High School. The district is ranked 113 out of 380 districts in Indiana and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
William Tell Elementary School outperforms the district and state averages in several academic areas, particularly in 3rd-6th grade English Language Arts and 4th-6th grade Math. However, the school struggles with a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%. In contrast, Tell City Junior-Senior High School maintains a strong 88.4% four-year graduation rate but has lower proficiency rates in ILEARN Math for 7th and 8th grades compared to the state.
Both schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, and the district's spending per student is higher at the high school level. The significant difference in free/reduced lunch rates between the two schools may indicate socioeconomic disparities within the district that could impact student outcomes and require targeted support. Overall, the data suggests that the district should focus on addressing the performance gaps between the elementary and high school, as well as the high chronic absenteeism rates, to ensure equitable and high-quality education for all students.
