North Vermillion Com School Corp

North Vermillion Com School Corp is a small Indiana district with just two schools — North Vermillion Elementary School, serving grades PK–6, and North Vermillion High School, serving grades 7–12 — enrolling 731 students combined, with more than half of families qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (59.4% at the elementary and 52.2% at the high school). The district overall ranks 282 of 374 in Indiana, in the 25th percentile with 1 star.

The two schools diverge in their state rankings. North Vermillion High School ranks 261 of 415, in the 37th percentile with 2 stars, up from the 32nd percentile two years earlier. North Vermillion Elementary School ranks 798 of 1,015, in the 21st percentile with 1 star, down from the 36th percentile and 2 stars. Attendance is a shared strength: chronic absenteeism is 10.1% at the elementary and 11.4% at the high school, both well below the state's 16.7%, though the high school is slightly above the district's 10.8%. Resource levels look similar — $12,208 per student at the elementary versus $12,488 at the high school — and the high school has the smaller student-teacher ratio, 9.4 versus 12.8.

Academically, math is the clearest concern. Elementary 4th grade math proficiency is 17.5% against the state's 52%, and high school SAT math is 1.67% against the state's 25.6%. The bright spots are elementary 3rd grade math, at 53.13% versus the state's 51.9%, and high school Biology End-of-Course, which improved from 42.37% to 54.55%. The high school's graduation rate is 83.3%, below the state's 89.7%; its ELA all-grades proficiency of 25% is above the district's 22.97%, while its math all-grades figure of 16.81% trails the district's 21.99%.
