Summary:

The Penn-Harris-Madison School Corp operates 15 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district is highly ranked, coming in at 33 out of 380 in Indiana and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

A few schools stand out as top performers within the district. Discovery Middle School is ranked 3rd out of 480 Indiana middle schools and rated 5 stars, with exceptional test scores of 71.65% proficient or better in ELA and 73.67% in Math. Northpoint Elementary School and Prairie Vista Elementary School are both ranked in the top 6 out of over 1,000 Indiana elementary schools and also have 5-star ratings, with proficiency rates over 80% in both ELA and Math.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the top-tier schools and some lower-performing schools in the district, such as Meadow's Edge Elementary and Virgil I Grissom Middle School, which have proficiency rates below 50%. The district's chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% is also on the higher side, and per-student spending varies widely, from $9,356 to $12,871, suggesting potential inequities in resource allocation.
