Summary

Cloverdale Distance Learning Academy is a K–8 school in Cloverdale, IN, serving 1,986 students as part of Cloverdale Community Schools — by far the largest enrollment among the nearby comparison schools, which range from 111 to 521 students. In 2025–2026 it ranked 654 of 1,015 Indiana schools (36th percentile, 2 stars), down from the 49th percentile the year before; the district ranks 200 of 374 statewide (47th percentile, 2 stars).

Several characteristics set this school apart from its neighbors. Chronic absenteeism was reported at 0.0% in 2024–2025, compared with 5.9% for the district, 16.7% statewide, and roughly 8.6% to 22.4% at nearby schools. Free/reduced lunch was 2.63% in 2022–2023, while nearby schools reported about 39.86% to 71.81% in 2024–2025 (more recent academy figures are not reported). Per-pupil spending was $6,427 in 2023–2024 — lower than every nearby school in the comparison set, including the same-district Cloverdale Elementary School at $8,247 and other neighbors ranging from $10,634 to $17,343. Its size, attendance pattern, and demographics suggest the academy serves a different kind of student population than traditional neighborhood elementaries, so direct comparisons should be read with care.

Academically, 2025–2026 all-grade proficiency was 25.25% in English Language Arts, 32.69% in math, and 43.75% in science. Science and social studies are relative strengths — 5th-grade social studies (50.65%) and 6th-grade science (44.38%) both edged above state averages. ELA and math, however, trailed the state at every tested grade, and ELA fell sharply from 43.15% the prior year to 25.25%; 8th-grade math was just 17.82% against a state rate of 34.2%. Cloverdale Elementary School, only 0.24 miles away, posted higher ELA (36.59%) and math (54.88%) proficiency and ranked in the 54th percentile. Nearby Fillmore Elementary School and Central Elementary School also scored considerably higher.
