Summary:
Randolph Central School Corp, based in Winchester, Indiana, operates a single high school: Winchester Community High School, which serves grades 9–12 and enrolls 399 students. Because there is only one high school in the district, most school-level and district-level figures — graduation rate, test scores, absenteeism — are identical. The Randolph Central School Corp district overall is rated 3 stars and ranks 189th of 374 Indiana districts (49th percentile).
Winchester Community High School has clear strengths. Its 2024–25 graduation rate of 95.5% is 5.8 percentage points above Indiana's 89.7%, meaning nearly all students finish. SAT Math proficiency more than doubled in one year, from 8.91% in 2024–25 to 19.1% in 2025–26, while the state rate stayed essentially flat at about 25.5%. SAT reading/writing held steady around 44.5–44.9%. The school also has a low student-teacher ratio of 12.1 — roughly 33 teachers for 399 students — and spent $14,003 per student in 2023–24.
Concerns remain. Chronic absenteeism was 21.6% in 2024–25, above both the district (16.0%) and state (16.7%) rates, meaning roughly 86 students missed substantial instructional time. SAT Math (19.1%) and SAT reading/writing (44.94%) are still below Indiana's 25.6% and 51.9%. Biology ILEARN proficiency slipped from 32.35% in 2024–25, when the state rate was 45.6%, to 30.4% in 2025–26, with no state comparison provided for that year. School ratings moved from 2 stars to 1 star and back to 2 stars, and the latest rank is 264th of 415 (36th percentile) — below the district's own overall rating. About 43% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.
