Summary

Rosedale Elementary School is a PK–6 school in Rosedale, Indiana, serving 318 students as part of the Southwest Parke Com School Corp. In 2025–2026 it ranked 593 of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools (42nd percentile, 2 stars), down from 408 of 1,005 (59th percentile, 3 stars) the year before and 370 of 1,011 (63rd percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–2024. That drop follows several stronger years and is the central story in the data.

The school's greatest strength is attendance: chronic absenteeism was 3.7% in 2024–2025, far below the district's 9.6% and the state's 16.7%, and lower than every nearby school. Academically, results are uneven. Math proficiency of 46.78% is above the district's 38.88%, and 3rd and 4th graders exceed state math averages. English language arts is the clearest concern: 23.39% proficiency is below the district and lower than every nearby school except Central Elementary School, with 4th-grade ELA at just 10.00%. ELA has fallen from 41.42% in 2023–2024 to 23.39% in 2025–2026, and math and science also slipped from their 2024–2025 peaks. Fifth-grade social studies is a bright spot at 44.68%, above the district and near the state.

Compared with neighbors, Rosedale trails higher-performing schools such as Staunton Elementary School, East Side Elementary School, and Rockville Elementary School, but outperforms Central Elementary School and Terre Town Elementary School. Resources alone don't explain the gap: Rosedale has a favorable 12:1 student-teacher ratio and mid-to-high per-pupil spending ($11,373), similar to or better than some higher-scoring schools nearby. For families, the takeaways are a strong attendance culture worth preserving, relatively solid math in the early grades, and a clear need for improvement in reading, especially in 4th grade.
