Summary:
The Twin Lakes School Corp in Indiana operates three elementary schools: Meadowlawn Elementary School, Oaklawn Elementary School, and Eastlawn Elementary School. Based on the available data, Oaklawn Elementary School appears to be the standout performer in the district, with higher test scores and better student-teacher ratios compared to the other two schools.
Oaklawn Elementary School excels in both English Language Arts and Math ILEARN test scores, outperforming the district and state averages. In 4th grade Math, Oaklawn's proficiency rate is 52.31%, significantly higher than the district (43.83%) and state (49.2%) averages. The school also has the highest ILEARN Science proficiency rate at 46.15%, compared to the district average of 41.07%. Additionally, Oaklawn has a lower student-teacher ratio of 14.3, which may contribute to its academic success.
While Oaklawn stands out, the other two schools in the district face some challenges. All three schools have the same chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which is higher than the state average. Eastlawn Elementary School, in particular, lags behind the district and state averages in English Language Arts ILEARN scores, despite having the highest spending per student at $13,699. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution, and factors such as resource allocation, teacher quality, and targeted programs may play a more significant role in improving academic outcomes.
