Summary

Huntingburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Huntingburg, Indiana, part of the Southwest Dubois County School Corporation. With 759 students, the school has faced several challenges in recent years, including high chronic absenteeism rates, lower test scores compared to state and district averages, and a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Huntingburg Elementary's academic performance has been below that of nearby schools, such as Holland Elementary and Ireland Elementary, which have significantly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates. The school's spending per student, ranging from $7,645 to $8,744, is also lower than some higher-performing schools in the area, like Northeast Dubois Elementary and Lincoln Trail Elementary.

While the high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch at Huntingburg Elementary may be contributing to its lower academic performance, the school's ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger have declined over the past several years, indicating that its performance has not kept pace with other Indiana elementary schools. Addressing the challenges faced by Huntingburg Elementary will likely require additional resources, targeted interventions, and a focus on improving the school's academic performance and overall learning environment.
