Summary:
In zip code 46124, there is one public high school serving grades 9-12: Edinburgh Community High School, which is part of the Edinburgh Community School Corp.
Edinburgh Community High School has an enrollment of 227 students and a student-teacher ratio of 12.9. The school's four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year was 88.4%, which is a strong indicator of student success in completing their high school education. However, the school faces a challenge with a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which is a concern for student engagement and academic progress. Academically, the school shows mixed results. While it performs slightly above the state average in SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing, with 50% proficiency in 2023-2024 and improving to 55.74% in 2024-2025, its performance in SAT Mathematics is notably below the state average, with only 12.96% proficiency in 2023-2024 and 18.03% in 2024-2025. Similarly, Biology proficiency is also below the state average, with a decline from 34.15% in 2023-2024 to 27.12% in 2024-2025.
The school serves a significant population of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by a free/reduced lunch rate of 62.56%. Despite this, the school has a per-student spending of $13,327, which is considered relatively high and suggests adequate resources are available. The school's statewide ranking has consistently been in the lower half of Indiana high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three reported years. This suggests a stable performance that could benefit from targeted interventions, particularly in improving STEM proficiency and addressing chronic absenteeism, to better leverage its available resources for enhanced student outcomes.
