Summary

Grandview Elementary School is a PK–6 public school in Connersville, Indiana, part of the Fayette County School Corporation, serving 530 students in a moderately high-poverty area where 58.3% of students received free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. It is the largest elementary school in its district and ranked 510th of 1,015 Indiana schools in 2025–2026 (50th percentile, 3 stars). Its performance has been volatile, reaching the 66th percentile in 2024–2025 before falling to the 50th percentile the following year.

Math is a relative strength: all-grade proficiency is 50.64%, above the district’s 43.3% and second among same-district peers only to Fayette Central Elementary. Early ELA is a concern, with 3rd grade at 22.73% and 4th grade at 31.25%—both well below state levels—though 6th grade ELA is strong at 44.44%, above district and state. Science is the clearest academic weakness: all-grade science is 29.41%, below the district’s 36.18%, and both tested grades (4th at 25% and 6th at 33.33%) fall below district and state. Fifth-grade social studies is a bright spot at 47.73%, above district and at the state level.

The most striking issue is chronic absenteeism. In 2024–2025, 50.1% of students were chronically absent—more than double the district’s 24.7%, roughly triple the state’s 16.7%, and far above nearby schools like Everton Elementary School (10.2%) and Fayette Central Elementary (10.4%). This is despite Grandview having a lower poverty rate than those same-district peers. The school also has the lowest per-pupil spending ($8,775) and highest student–teacher ratio (19.8) among comparison schools, yet Centerville-Abington Elementary School achieves higher ELA and science with similar spending. Attendance and targeted ELA/science support are likely critical, while 6th-grade ELA and math, 3rd-grade math, and 5th-grade social studies offer bright spots to build on.
