Summary:
The South Vermillion Com School Corp district in Indiana is home to a single high school, South Vermillion High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is below the state average in several key subjects, including SAT/Evidence-based Reading and Writing and SAT/Mathematics. Additionally, the school's proficiency rate in ILEARN/Biology for End of Course is lower than the state average.
Socioeconomic factors appear to play a significant role in the school's challenges, with over 50% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high rate of economic disadvantage may contribute to the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 32%, which is notably higher than desired. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $12,353, the academic performance data suggests that these resources may not be effectively translating into improved student outcomes.
Another area of concern is the lack of racial and ethnic diversity at South Vermillion High School, with a student population that is 94.77% White. This homogeneity may limit the school's ability to provide a diverse and inclusive learning environment for its students, which can have a significant impact on their educational experiences and preparation for the future.
