North Gibson School Corporation

North Gibson School Corporation in Indiana serves 1,864 students across four schools — two elementary schools for grades K–2 and 3–5, one middle school for grades 6–8, and one high school for grades 9–12 — and is ranked 259th of 374 districts (31st percentile, 2 stars). The schools are Princeton Community Primary School, Princeton Community Intermediate School, Princeton Community Middle, and Princeton Community High School.

Among the four schools, Princeton Community High School has the district’s strongest attendance and graduation outcomes: a 95.1% graduation rate in 2024-25, above the state’s 89.7%, and 10.2% chronic absenteeism, much lower than the district’s 16.8% and the state’s 16.7%. However, its proficiency results lag: SAT Math was 14.93% in 2025-26 and 18.12% in 2024-25, versus about 25% statewide, and Biology ILEARN End of Course was 23.48% in 2025-26 and 23.31% in 2024-25, compared with 45.6% statewide in 2024-25. Its rank percentile slipped from 50 in 2023-24 to 33 in 2025-26, and its star rating fell from 3 to 2. At the intermediate level, Princeton Community Intermediate School is a relative bright spot in math and science, with 39.43% math and 36.09% science in 2025-26, above district averages of 31.01% and 35.52%; its 5th grade math was 42.74%, slightly above the state’s 42.0%.

Princeton Community Middle has the highest chronic absenteeism at 24.8%, compared with 16.8% district and 16.7% state, and its 7th grade results are major weak points: 21.01% ELA versus 41.7% statewide and 15.22% math versus 35.9% statewide in 2025-26. Still, ELA improved from 25.97% to 31.67% and science from 27.66% to 35.03% between 2024-25 and 2025-26, while math barely moved from 23.11% to 23.33%. Princeton Community Primary School serves K–2 and has no state test scores; it has 17.2% chronic absenteeism, 41.73% free/reduced lunch, $12,545 per-student spending in 2023-24, and the lowest student-teacher ratio at 10.6. Overall, the district’s below-average rating reflects uneven results: strong high school attendance/graduation and intermediate math/science, but serious middle school absenteeism and middle-grade math/ELA gaps.
