Summary:
In zip code 47025, there is one middle school, Greendale Middle School, serving grades 6-8. This public school is part of the Lawrenceburg Community School Corp and has an enrollment of 461 students. The school is situated in an area where socioeconomic factors, indicated by a 41.65% free/reduced lunch rate, play a role in the student population.
Greendale Middle School has shown a consistent statewide ranking over the past few years, typically falling between 157 and 199 out of approximately 480-490 Indiana middle schools, earning a 3-star rating. However, the school faces challenges with a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year. Academically, the school presents a mixed picture. While it demonstrated exceptional performance in Biology with a 96.88% proficiency rate in 2023-2024, significantly outperforming district and state averages, its performance in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics shows areas for improvement. In ELA, the school's proficiency was above the district average in 2023-2024 but is projected to be below in 2024-2025. Math proficiency, in particular, has been a concern, with scores consistently below the district average in both recent years, especially in the 6th and 7th grades.
The school's spending per student is $10,117, with a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.8, suggesting adequate resources are available. However, the impact of these resources on academic outcomes, particularly in Math and Science, warrants further investigation. The school's performance often aligns with the broader trends of the Lawrenceburg Community School Corp, but the notable fluctuations in specific subjects, like the exceptional Biology scores and the projected decline in Math and Science, highlight the need for targeted interventions to enhance student learning across all areas.
