Summary:

Center Grove Community School Corp is a high-performing Indiana district serving 9,736 students across nine schools — six elementary, two middle, and one high school — and ranks 19th of 374 Indiana districts (95th percentile) with 5 stars. The high school is by far the largest campus at 2,956 students, while the elementaries range from about 685 to 817 students each.

Six of the nine schools earn 5 stars. Center Grove Elementary School is the elementary standout, ranking 25th of 1,015 elementary schools (98th percentile) and leading all elementaries in ELA (76.49%), math (76.35%), and science (64.49%) — while also posting the district's lowest poverty rate (15.92%) and lowest per-student spending ($8,836). Center Grove Middle School Central ranks 13th of 486 middle schools, ahead of Center Grove Middle School North (22nd), with higher scores in every subject and lower chronic absenteeism (6.9% vs. 10.8%). North Grove Elementary School stands out for another reason: it has the district's highest poverty rate (43.8%) yet still ranks in the 91st percentile with 5 stars, and its ELA and math scores beat district averages. Center Grove High School graduates 99.1% of students and scores 74.25% in SAT verbal, far above the state's 51.9%.

Two areas to watch: the high school's chronic absenteeism (15.4%) is well above the district's 9.4%, and its biology score (55.7%) trails the district's 62.9%. Among elementaries, Sugar Grove Elementary School, Pleasant Grove Elementary School, and Walnut Grove Elementary School hold 4 stars and rank lower (227th–243rd) than their peers, though most still outperform state benchmarks; Maple Grove Elementary School is a steady 5-star performer at 96th. Per-student spending ranges from $8,836 to $10,887 with no simple relationship to achievement.
