District-Level NCES Analysis
Randolph Eastern School Corp operates 2 public schools serving 928 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Indiana. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 combined 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 Randolph County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,252 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 19.6% local, 61.0% state, and 19.4% 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 79/100, ranked #26 of 372 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.
a 457.5:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 46.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 56.7% White, 40.2% Hispanic or Latino, 0.2% African American across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is North Side Elementary School, enrolling 526 students (57% of the district's total enrollment).
North Side Elementary School accounts for 56.7% of all Randolph Eastern School Corp student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Randolph Eastern School Corp a distant remainder — means Randolph Eastern School Corp-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.
Randolph Eastern School Corp reports 65.8% free-lunch eligibility
The reported share sits between 62.5% and 75%, above a simple majority but below the highest descriptive band used here. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Randolph Eastern School Corp student-counselor ratio is 458:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Randolph Eastern School Corp chronic absenteeism rate is 46.5% — 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.
