Summary:

Wanatah, Indiana has one school in this data set, Tri-Township Elementary School, a PK–6 elementary school with 141 students and no middle, high, or alternative schools listed locally; it belongs to Tri-Township Cons School Corp, which ranks 230 of 374 districts in Indiana (39th percentile, 2 stars). Because it is the only school in the area, it is both the sole local public-school option and the main school to monitor here.

Tri-Township Elementary’s profile is mixed. Chronic absenteeism is a strength at 6.8%, far below Indiana’s 16.7% and close to the district’s 5.0%. In 2024–2025, all-grade math was 46.27% versus the district’s 32.48%, all-grade ELA was 40.3% versus 34.19%, and 5th grade Social Studies was 65.38% versus the state’s 38.5%. However, the latest year shows sharp declines: the school fell from 474 of 1,005 (53rd percentile, 3 stars) in 2024–2025 to 737 of 1,015 (27th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–2026. In 2025–2026, all-grade Science is 14.29% versus the district’s 35.29%; 4th grade Science is 14.29% versus the state’s 43.8%. All-grade ELA and Math also trail the district, and upper-elementary results show larger gaps, including 4th grade ELA at 21.43%, 4th grade Math at 28.57%, 5th grade Math at 20%, and 5th grade Social Studies at 24%.

Other context: free/reduced-price lunch participation is 48.23%, per-student spending is $16,597, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.4. With only 141 students, grade-level cohorts are likely small, so single-year percentage swings can be large. Overall, Tri-Township Elementary shows strong attendance and some strong prior-year results, but current weaknesses in science, upper-elementary math, and social studies, plus a major ranking drop in 2025–2026. No test-score suppression markers appear in this record, so the listed percentages can be read as exact reported figures.
