Summary

Indiana Academy for Sci Math Hmn is a small public high school serving 218 students in grades 10–12 on the Ball State University campus in Muncie, Indiana, and it operates as its own district.

By the state’s ranking system, it is the top high school in Indiana: #1 of 415 high schools in 2025–2026, at the 100th percentile with 5 stars. It has been ranked #1 or #2 every listed year since 2017–2018, usually #1. SAT proficiency is the clearest differentiator. In 2025–2026, 91.57% of 11th graders were proficient in evidence-based reading and writing versus 51.9% statewide, and 79.52% were proficient in math versus 25.6% statewide. Across the available years, reading/writing proficiency stays in the 90–92.63% range and math in the 78.75–81.19% range — not just high, but very stable. The 2024–2025 graduation rate was 99.0%, compared with Indiana’s 89.7%, and chronic absenteeism was reported at 0.0% in every listed year from 2020–2021 through 2024–2025, while state rates ran 16.7% to 21.1%. The school is also heavily resourced: $30,739 per pupil in 2023–2024, a 7.5 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025, and a 14.68% free/reduced-lunch rate.

Compared with nearby schools, the Academy sits in a different performance tier. Yorktown High School is the strongest nearby conventional school, yet its 2025–2026 proficiency was 63.54% in reading/writing and 37.5% in math — the Academy’s math result is more than double that and more than three times the state rate. Blue River Valley Junior-Senior High School reports a 100% graduation rate but far lower SAT proficiency, a reminder that graduation rate alone can mask differences in readiness. Most nearby schools serve broader populations across grades 7–12 or 9–12, while the Academy is a specialized grades 10–12 academy on a university campus, which helps explain why even strong local schools look so different from it.
