Summary:

There is one middle school serving zip code 47043, Switzerland County Middle School, which serves grades 7-8. This school is part of the Switzerland County School Corp, which ranks 225th out of 380 Indiana school districts and has a 2-star rating.

Switzerland County Middle School has shown a positive trend in its statewide ranking, improving from 345th in the 2020-2021 school year to 242nd in 2022-2023, accompanied by an increase in its star rating from 1 to 3 stars. Academically, the school demonstrates strengths in English Language Arts (ELA), with proficiency rates in all grades (42.93%) and 7th grade (46.53%) exceeding both district and state averages in the 2023-2024 school year. However, 8th-grade ELA proficiency (39.42%) was slightly below the state average. In Math, the school's proficiency rates for all grades (29.76%) and 8th grade (25%) were lower than district and state averages, respectively. Notably, there was a slight decrease in both ELA and Math proficiency from the 2023-2024 to the 2024-2025 reporting periods, which warrants further attention.

The school serves a significant portion of students from low-income backgrounds, with nearly 60% qualifying for free or reduced lunch. A key area of concern is the chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% in 2023-2024, which can negatively impact academic performance. On a positive note, Switzerland County Middle School benefits from strong financial resources, with a spending per student of $12,115, exceeding the national average. The student-teacher ratio of 12.2 is also favorable, suggesting smaller class sizes that can support student learning.
