West Noble School Corporation

West Noble School Corporation is a four-school district in Noble County, Indiana, serving roughly 2,192 students from prekindergarten through 12th grade: two elementary schools (PK–1 and 2–4), one middle school (5–8), and one high school (9–12), with no alternative school. The district as a whole is rated 222nd of 374 Indiana districts — the 41st percentile with 2 stars — and that district-wide rating appears on every school record, so it describes the system rather than any single building. Attendance is the district's steadiest strength: chronic absenteeism is 11.6% district-wide, below the state's 16.7%, and every school beats the state rate.

West Noble Middle School is currently the district's leader, ranking 238 of 486 (51st percentile) with 3 stars — the only 3-star school here — and absenteeism of 8.4%. Its standout is 8th-grade Math at 50.97% proficient versus the state's 34.2%. West Noble Elementary School made the biggest jump in the district, rising from 1 star and the 25th percentile to 2 stars and the 42nd percentile, with all-grades Math at 51.25% and 4th-grade Math at 56.43%. West Noble High School is the academic watchpoint despite a strong 91.7% graduation rate: it slipped from 3 stars to 2 stars and from the 50th to the 38th percentile, with SAT Math at 17.71% and SAT ERW at 41.67%, both below state. West Noble Primary School has no current test scores or rank; its highest-in-district spending of $12,149 can't be weighed against current outcomes. With free/reduced lunch between about 55% and 62% at every school, the differences between these buildings aren't explained by need alone.
