Summary:
Charlottesville, Indiana is home to three public schools serving grades PK through 12 — one elementary, one middle, and one high school — all part of the Eastern Hancock County Com School Corp district, which ranks 128th of 374 Indiana districts (66th percentile, 3 stars). Together, Eastern Hancock Elementary School (549 students, PK–5), Eastern Hancock Middle School (299 students, 6–8), and Eastern Hancock High School (371 students, 9–12) enroll 1,219 students in total.
Eastern Hancock Elementary School is the academic standout, ranking 219th of 1,015 schools statewide in 2025–26 (78th percentile, 4 stars) and holding 4 stars for three straight years. It beats the district in all-grade ELA (52.12% vs. 41.33%), math (57.14% vs. 48.15%), and science (56.98% vs. 47.70%), and tops the state in every reported grade-level subject — including 5th grade social studies at 72.34% vs. the state's 47.2%. Notably, it does this while having the highest free/reduced lunch rate of the three schools (39.34%). Eastern Hancock Middle School is the pressure point: all-grade proficiency trails the district in ELA, math, and science, ELA is below state at every grade, and its rank has slipped from the 65th to the 55th percentile over three years.
Eastern Hancock High School is a mixed picture. Its 96.7% graduation rate beats the state's 89.7%, and chronic absenteeism of 9.7% is well under the state's 16.7% — as is every school in the district. But its rank swung from the 76th percentile (4 stars) in 2024–25 to the 44th (2 stars) in 2025–26, with SAT math falling from 27.45% to 14.08%. The high school spends the most per student ($11,711) with the lowest student-teacher ratio (13.5); the middle school spends the least ($9,866) with the highest ratio (15.8).
