District-Level NCES Analysis
Edinburgh Community School Corp operates 3 public schools serving 837 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Indiana. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 high, 1 middle schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Johnson County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,895 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 406 Indiana districts by per-pupil spending. See how Indiana compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 17.5% local, 68.3% state, and 14.2% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 62/100, ranked #116 of 373 in Indiana against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (2 AP courses district-wide), a 264.3:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 49.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 84.0% White, 12.0% Hispanic or Latino, 0.5% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Edinburgh Community High School, with a diversity index of 28.5/100.
Its largest campus is East Side Elementary School, enrolling 382 students (48% of the district's total enrollment).
East Side Elementary School accounts for 45.6% of all Edinburgh Community School Corp student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Edinburgh Community School Corp a distant remainder — means Edinburgh Community School Corp-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Edinburgh Community School Corp school enrollment varies 2.1× across entities
Edinburgh Community School Corp school enrollment ranges from 179 students (lowest) to 382 students (highest), a spread of 203 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Edinburgh Community School Corp has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 63.9% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is approaching the 75% concentration-grant threshold; it does not yet unlock the extra funding tier but sits meaningfully above the baseline 50% majority mark. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Edinburgh Community School Corp student-counselor ratio is 264:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Edinburgh Community School Corp is typically wider than the Edinburgh Community School Corp-aggregate figure suggests.
Edinburgh Community School Corp chronic absenteeism rate is 49.1% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
