Summary:

Scott County School District 1 has one high school in this list, Austin High School, serving grades 9–12 in Austin, Indiana, with 429 students. Because it is the only high school represented, district-level results are essentially Austin High School's results. The district is ranked 298th of 374 in Indiana, at the 20th percentile with 1 star. Austin High School's rank history is in the lower portion of Indiana high schools: 311 of 415 (25th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–2026; 298 of 429 (31st percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025; and 306 of 432 (29th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024.

There are real strengths. In 2024–2025, Austin High School's graduation rate was 91.9%, above Indiana's 89.7%. Its chronic absenteeism rate was 14.3%, lower than the district's 19.3% and the state's 16.7%, and lower is better. This relative attendance strength stands out given that 46.15% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025. Spending per student was $12,022 in 2023–2024.

The main concerns are test proficiency and class/staffing metrics. In 2025–2026, SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing proficiency was 39.39% versus the state's 51.9%, and SAT Math was 9.09% versus the state's 25.6%; the prior year was similar. Biology ILEARN was near the state in 2024–2025 at 44.12% versus 45.6%, but fell to 27.68% in 2025–2026, with no state comparison provided. The reported student-teacher ratio of 47.6 in 2024–2025 is unusually high and should be treated as a flagged metric needing interpretation; if literal, it would imply roughly 9 teachers for 429 students. Overall, Austin High School shows better-than-state graduation and attendance but well-below-state college-readiness exam proficiency, especially in math, and remains in the lower quartile with a most recent 1-star rating.
