Summary

Clarksville Middle School in Clarksville, Indiana, is a public middle school serving grades 5–8 with 430 students as part of the Clarksville Community School Corp. In 2025–2026, it ranked 243rd out of 486 Indiana middle schools—the 50th percentile—and earned a 3-star rating, far above its district, which ranked 305th out of 374 districts at the 18th percentile with 1 star.

The school’s recent story is one of recovery. After reaching the 59th–62nd percentile in 2018–2021, it slipped to the 40th–42nd percentile in 2022–2024, then rebounded to the 48th percentile in 2024–2025 and the 50th percentile in 2025–2026. Attendance also improved: chronic absenteeism fell from 29.5% in 2022–2023 to 19.9% in 2024–2025, better than most nearby schools though still above the state’s 16.7%. The student-teacher ratio dropped from 21.9 to 14.1. All-grade ELA rose to 43.26% and math to 30.57%, but math remains below state in every tested grade, especially 5th and 6th. Science is the clearest concern: 6th grade science was 22.12% versus a state average of 41.2%, the lowest among nearby schools.

Compared with nearby schools, Highland Hills Middle School (64.56% ELA and 58.76% math), Charlestown Middle School, and Silver Creek Middle School post stronger results. Clarksville Middle School is roughly competitive with River Valley Middle School and Nathaniel Scribner Middle School, and generally ahead of Parkview Middle School and Hazelwood Middle School. It does this while spending only $7,350 per student—the lowest among nearby comparisons—with 51.63% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch. Overall, this is a mid-performing, improving school with strengths in 5th and 8th grade ELA, attendance, and class size, but clear room to grow in math and science.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, November 6, 2020

This is a heavily Democratic Middle School who claims to use the money they are charging for Covid masks to put toward the school but the school is a dump. Management needs to change in this school big time. I thought that they were handling Covid well until they lied to all of the parents. They promised the schedule would be half and half Virtual and Physical School. What happened instead was they were off for 2 weeks then went in and stayed for months until the 20th child contracted Covid. They are now allowing kids to be home for another 2 weeks. My son said they do not have anyone performing extra cleaning. I asked "not even the kids cleaning their own areas before the next kids come in?" He said "no. we just get up and leave like normal and watch as other kids walk right in and go to the seats we've been sitting at." I find it curious how this school claims they have been following the restrictions when in all reality, they are just operating like everything is normal. Close Quote
