Summary:
Linton-Stockton Elementary is the only elementary school serving the Linton-Stockton School Corporation in Linton, Indiana, educating about 725 students in grades PK–5, so families in this area have a single public elementary option and district-wide elementary figures essentially reflect this one school.
The school is a strong performer. It earned a 4-star rating in each of the last three reported years, ranking 249th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools in 2025–2026 (75th percentile), 284th of 1,005 in 2024–2025 (72nd percentile), and 248th of 1,011 in 2023–2024 (75th percentile) — consistently top-quartile results. Its rating outpaces the district overall, which is rated 3 stars and sits in the 68th percentile. Attendance is a standout strength: chronic absenteeism is 8.5%, well below the district's 11.9% and roughly half the state's 16.7%. In ILEARN testing for 2025–2026, students scored above Indiana averages in every grade-level comparison, with the largest leads in 3rd-grade math (66.36% vs. 51.9% state) and 4th-grade math (66.67% vs. 52.0% state), plus 4th-grade science (58.06% vs. 43.8% state).
There are a few areas worth watching. Fifth-grade ELA (43.69% vs. 42.2% state) and 5th-grade math (42.72% vs. 42.0% state) clear state averages only narrowly, making upper-elementary reading and math the smallest margins. All-grade science jumped from 42.31% in 2024–2025 to 58.06% in 2025–2026, though the district improved similarly, suggesting a broader trend rather than a school-specific gain. All-grade ELA (50.98%) and science (58.06%) also trail the district-wide all-grade figures slightly, while all-grade math (58.5%) exceeds the district's 50.5%. Context: 51.45% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $8,777, and the student-teacher ratio is 19.9 to 1.
