Summary

Columbus Signature Academy New Technical High School is a grades 9–12 high school in Columbus, IN, part of Bartholomew Con School Corp, with an enrollment figure listed as 0 in the provided 2025–2026 profile; this likely means enrollment data is unavailable or incomplete, not that no students attend. It is ranked 279th of 415 Indiana high schools — 33rd percentile, 2 stars. Its district, Bartholomew Con School Corp, ranks higher overall: 162nd of 374, 57th percentile, 3 stars.

The school’s test profile is sharply uneven. Biology ILEARN End of Course proficiency is 46.32%, above the district’s 43.05% and far above Columbus East High School’s 28.28% and Columbus North High School’s 38.69%. It is the second-highest Biology score among nearby schools with reported data, behind Southwestern High School’s 52.83%. But SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing proficiency is 33.73%, much lower than the district’s 52.56%, the state’s 51.9%, and every nearby school with reported SAT ERW data, including Seymour Senior High School’s 34.76%. SAT Math is 13.25%, the lowest reported among nearby schools; it is below the district’s 29.33%, the state’s 25.6%, Columbus East High School’s 25.32%, and Columbus North High School’s 34.22%.

Subgroup results are uneven. English Language Learner students rank 53rd of 122 — 57th percentile, 3 stars — which is higher than the school’s overall 33rd percentile. Special education students rank 45th percentile, low socioeconomic status students 44th percentile, and male students 44th percentile, while female students rank 26th percentile, 1 star. Important information is missing: the profile does not report free/reduced lunch, student-teacher ratio, graduation rate, or chronic absenteeism for this school. Nearby schools report graduation rates of 83.0% to 100.0% and chronic absenteeism from 10.7% to 26.6%, so families cannot fully compare outcomes. Overall, Columbus Signature Academy New Technical High School shows relatively strong Biology performance, especially against same-district high schools, but weak SAT reading/writing and math results, a low overall rank, and uneven subgroup effectiveness.
