Summary:

Akron, Indiana has three public schools serving grades K–12, all within the Tippecanoe Valley School Corp district: Akron Elementary School (K–5), Tippecanoe Valley Middle School (6–8), and Tippecanoe Valley High School (9–12). Together they enroll 1,354 students, with the high school the largest at 568, the middle school at 432, and the elementary at 354. The district itself ranks 164th of 374 Indiana districts, in the 56th percentile with 3 stars.

The middle and high schools are the stronger performers. Both sit at the 59th percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, up from the 44th percentile and 2 stars in 2023–24. Tippecanoe Valley High School posts a 97.7% graduation rate versus the state's 89.7%, and its SAT results are mixed — slightly above state in 2025–26 math, slightly below in reading. Its Biology end-of-course results improved from 17.44% in 2024–25 to 33.02% in 2025–26 but remain below district. Tippecanoe Valley Middle School shows a striking Biology result of 85.19% in 2024–25 and 80% in 2025–26, far above district and state, though that attribution is unusual for a middle school. Both schools keep chronic absenteeism below the state's 16.7%, with the middle school at 7.8%.

Akron Elementary School is the clear concern, falling from the 54th percentile and 3 stars to the 29th percentile and 1 star over three years. In 2025–26 its all-grade ELA (28%), math (33.71%), and science (31.25%) scores all trail district averages. Poverty levels are similar across all three schools (53.87% to 57.87% free/reduced lunch), and spending does not track outcomes — the elementary spends the most at $11,363 per student, while the middle school spends the least at $9,904.
