Summary:
Modoc, Indiana has five schools — two elementary and three high schools, with no standalone middle school — all operated by Union School Corporation and all sharing the same address on West Highway 36. Total listed enrollment is 7,821 students, but that number is dominated by three large digital programs: Indiana Digital Junior and High School (4,166 students), Indiana Digital Elementary (2,125), and Indiana Digital Alternative School (1,238) — about 96.3% of enrollment. The two brick-and-mortar Union schools are far smaller: Union Elementary School with 161 students and Union Junior & High School with 131.
Union Elementary School is the strongest overall performer: 705 of 1,015 schools, 31st percentile, 2 stars, with the best all-grade proficiency in ELA (25%), Math (36.25%), and Science (26%), and the lowest free/reduced lunch rate (41.61%). Its 5th-grade Math proficiency of 62.5% is well above the state's 42%. Union Junior & High School posts the best high-school outcomes, including a 100% graduation rate versus the district's 62.3% and the state's 89.7%, plus the best SAT EBRW (42.86%) and SAT Math (4.76%) among the listed high schools. Because it enrolls only 131 students, results swing widely — its Biology EOC fell from 50% in 2024-25 to 22.73% in 2025-26, and its rank percentile slipped from 31st to 22nd.
Indiana Digital Alternative School is the most concerning, with a 41.5% graduation rate, 55.2% chronic absenteeism (state: 16.7%), 0.35% SAT Math, and a 5th percentile rank. Indiana Digital Elementary ranks lowest at 987 of 1,015 (3rd percentile), with 7.35% ELA and 6.26% Math. Every listed school exceeds the state's 16.7% chronic absenteeism rate, and high-school SAT Math is weak across the board, topping out at 4.76% against the state's 25.6%. Union School Corporation ranks 341 of 374 (9th percentile, 0 stars), though individual schools vary widely.
