Summary

Morgan Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Palmyra, Indiana, serving 442 students as part of the North Harrison Com School Corp, where it is the stronger of the district's two elementary schools. Morgan ranked 450th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 56th percentile with 3 stars, slightly above its district's percentile but well below where it once stood: it was a 5-star school in the 92nd percentile in 2016–2017 and 2017–2018.

Morgan's clearest academic strength is Math. All-grade Math proficiency was 51.44% in 2025–2026, a +14.5 percentage-point advantage over its district, and it matched or exceeded the state in every tested grade (3rd grade 51.9%, 4th grade 59.09%, 5th grade 42.86%). Fifth grade Social Studies is a standout at 57.14% proficient — far above the district's 39.73% and the state's 47.2%. The school also has unusually low chronic absenteeism of 8.4%, better than the district's 10.9% and the state's 16.7%, even though 51.81% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. Compared with its same-district peer North Harrison Elementary School, Morgan leads in ELA (35.41% vs. 28.47%), Math (51.44% vs. 39.78%) and Science (43.28% vs. 34.88%).

English Language Arts is the main concern. Morgan's all-grade ELA proficiency of 35.41% is above its district's 33.19% but below the state in every tested grade, with 4th grade at 31.34% against the state's 42.2% — a gap of nearly 11 points. Both Math and ELA have declined over several years. Class sizes are another consideration: Morgan's student-teacher ratio of 18.4 is among the highest locally, and its spending of $10,265 per student is mid-range. Notably, nearby schools with similar poverty levels — Corydon Elementary School (58.54% free/reduced lunch) and East Crawford Elementary School (59.23%) — post higher ELA and Math scores, so demographics alone do not explain Morgan's results.
