District-Level NCES Analysis

Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,371 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 405 Indiana districts by per-pupil spending. See how Indiana compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 36.1% local, 56.7% state, and 7.3% 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 56/100, ranked #149 of 372 in Indiana against a state average of 50, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 333:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 8.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

Frontier Elementary accounts for 59.0% of all Frontier School Corporation student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Frontier School Corporation a distant remainder — means Frontier School Corporation-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Frontier School Corporation student-counselor ratio is 333:1 — 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 Frontier School Corporation is typically wider than the Frontier School Corporation-aggregate figure suggests.
Frontier School Corporation chronic absenteeism rate is 8.9% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
