Summary

West Crawford Elementary School is a public elementary school in Eckerty, Indiana, serving 175 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Crawford County Community School Corporation, which is ranked 217 out of 380 school districts in the state.

Despite relatively high per-student spending and a student-teacher ratio comparable to nearby schools, West Crawford Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Indiana elementary schools and struggles to meet state and district academic standards. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (31.71%) and Math (45.12%) are lower than the district (43.84% and 52.24%) and the state (40.3% and 51.5% for 3rd grade). In contrast, East Crawford Elementary, also in the Crawford County district, ranks much higher (top 25% of Indiana schools) and has significantly higher proficiency rates.

Another concern is West Crawford Elementary's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.8% to 24.6% in recent years, which are significantly higher than the state average. This issue is closely linked to lower academic achievement. Additionally, the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, with 57.71% to 70.11% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, higher than nearby schools like Ferdinand Elementary (22.92%) and Northeast Dubois Intermediate (29.69%). Addressing the root causes of these challenges will be crucial for improving student outcomes at West Crawford Elementary.
