Summary

Martinsville High School is a public high school located in Martinsville, Indiana, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,315 students. The school is part of the MSD Martinsville Schools district, which is ranked 151 out of 380 districts in Indiana and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Martinsville High School faces several challenges, including lower academic performance, particularly in mathematics, where only 25.32% of students were proficient or better on the SAT, compared to the district average of 25.32%. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 94 to 301 out of Indiana high schools, and its SchoolDigger rating has also varied between 2 and 4 stars, currently at 3 stars. The school's graduation rate has been relatively stable, ranging from 84.7% to 88.4% over the past few years, but its chronic absenteeism rate has been a concern, ranging from 17.8% to 24.2% in recent years.

Martinsville High School's performance lags behind several nearby high-performing schools, such as Plainfield High School, Bloomington High School North, and Center Grove High School, which consistently rank higher in the state and have stronger academic outcomes. This may be partly due to the fact that Martinsville High School serves a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (43.95% free/reduced lunch) compared to the high-performing nearby schools (e.g., 23.37% at Center Grove High School).
