Summary

South Ripley High School is a public high school located in Versailles, Indiana, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 345 students. The school is part of the South Ripley Community School Corporation, which is ranked 66th out of 380 school districts in Indiana and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

South Ripley High School has shown mixed performance over the years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 149th and 307th out of Indiana's high schools. The school's academic performance has been relatively lower for white students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, but it has performed well for its special education students, ranking 60th out of 298 Indiana high schools in 2024-2025. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.9% to 31.2%, are a significant concern and may be contributing to its overall academic challenges.

When compared to nearby high schools, such as Batesville High School, South Dearborn High School, Milan High School, and Jac-Cen-Del Middle School/High School, South Ripley High School generally performs at a lower level in terms of statewide ranking, test scores, and graduation rates. Despite the school's increased spending per student, from $11,101 in 2020-2021 to $14,562 in 2023-2024, its academic performance has not consistently matched the investment, indicating a need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation and utilization.
