Summary:
The 46173 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Rush County Schools district. The standout schools in this area are Benjamin Rush Middle School, which ranks 194 out of 489 Indiana middle schools and performs well on ILEARN tests, and Rushville Consolidated High School, which ranks 165 out of 398 Indiana high schools and maintains a relatively high 4-year graduation rate.
While the schools generally perform below the state averages on ILEARN tests, there are some exceptions, such as Rushville Consolidated High School outperforming the state average on SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing. However, all three schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which may impact overall student performance. Additionally, the high percentages of free and reduced lunch recipients at the schools suggest that the student population may face socioeconomic challenges, which could influence academic outcomes.
The data also reveals variations in resource allocation, with Rushville Consolidated High School having the highest spending per student and Benjamin Rush Middle School having the lowest student-teacher ratio. These differences may indicate areas for further investigation and potential improvements in the schools' performance and resource distribution.
