Summary

Whiteland Community High School is a public school serving roughly 2,144 students in grades 9–12 in Whiteland, Indiana, a community just south of Indianapolis, and it is part of the Clark-Pleasant Community School Corp. The district rates strongly overall — 77th percentile, 4 stars — but the high school's own 2025–26 rating is much lower at 47th percentile with 2 stars, ranking 221st of 415 Indiana high schools. That is a long slide from 2015–16, when the school sat at the 83rd percentile with 4 stars.

The school's clearest strength is graduation: 95.1% of students graduated in 2024–25, above the state's 89.7% and in line with nearby schools such as Greenwood Community High School. Chronic absenteeism has also improved dramatically, falling from 55.4% in 2021–22 to 20.4% in 2024–25 — though that is still above Indiana's 16.7% and higher than Center Grove High School and Indian Creek Senior High School. Test scores are more mixed. Biology ILEARN proficiency is persistently low: 25.38% in 2024–25 versus the state's 45.6%, and 34.16% in 2025–26, below the district's 44.41%. SAT results swing widely, above the state in both subjects in 2024–25 but below state levels in 2025–26.

Results also vary by student group. English Language Learner students rank at the 83rd percentile with 4 stars and special education students at the 65th, both above the school's overall 47th percentile. Low-income students, however, fell from the 71st percentile in 2024–25 to the 45th in 2025–26. Per-student spending was $10,640 in 2023–24 — more than Franklin Central High School and Center Grove High School spend, even though those schools often post stronger academic results — suggesting the challenges here are not simply about funding.
