Summary

Randolph Southern Elementary School in Lynn, IN is a K–6 school serving 268 students in the Randolph Southern School Corp, a district ranked 138th of 374 Indiana districts. The school earned a 2025–2026 rank of 284th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — 72nd percentile with 4 stars — up from the 42nd percentile and 2 stars in 2016–2017. In 2024–2025, 61.57% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending was $10,129, and the student-teacher ratio was 13.4.

Academically, all-grade ILEARN proficiency was 44.88% in English Language Arts, 54.33% in Math, and 53.45% in Science. Those ELA and Math results are the highest among nearby schools, and Randolph Southern is the only 4-star school in the local comparison. Hagerstown Elementary School (62nd percentile, 3 stars) is the closest academic peer, and Randolph Southern beats it in ELA (44.88% vs. 38.36%), Math (54.33% vs. 46.23%), and attendance — though Hagerstown leads in Science (58.90% vs. 53.45%), the one clear local gap. Other nearby schools trail further: Monroe Central Elementary School at the 45th percentile, Northeastern Elementary School at 46th, and North Side Elementary School at 17th.

Chronic absenteeism is a standout strength at 8.3%, less than half the state rate of 16.7% and below the district’s 10.6% — even though the school’s free/reduced lunch rate is higher than Hagerstown’s, Monroe Central’s, or Northeastern’s. Fourth- and fifth-grade scores are above state averages in both ELA and Math, while third grade is the main watch point (ELA 34.48% vs. state 40.8%; Math 48.28% vs. 51.9%). The school also gets these results without unusual resource advantages, spending less per student than Fairview Elementary School and Crestdale Elementary School, which spend $12,700–$13,200 per student yet post much lower proficiency and absenteeism above 30%.
