Summary

Danville Community High School is a public school serving roughly 853 students in grades 9–12 in Danville, Indiana, part of the Danville Community School Corp, and in 2025–2026 it ranked 38th of 415 Indiana high schools — the 91st percentile, with 5 stars.

That is a strong result, though Danville sits in the second tier of its immediate Indianapolis-area peer group: Brownsburg High School (8th), Tri-West Senior High School (21st), Plainfield High School (26th), and Avon High School (27th) all rank higher. The school's direction is clearly positive: its graduation rate climbed from 90.0% in 2020–2021 to 97.6% in 2024–2025 (above the state's 89.7%), and chronic absenteeism fell from 25.8% in 2021–2022 to 11.1% in 2024–2025, well below the state's 16.7%. SAT results are a major strength — 68.72% proficiency in reading and writing versus the state's 51.9%, and 41.41% in math versus 25.6%. Biology is the clearest gap: 51.85% proficiency trails the district's 59.07% and sits behind Brownsburg, Avon, Tri-West, Plainfield, and Cascade Senior High School, even though it has improved from 36.02% in 2022–2023.

What stands out most is how well Danville serves students who often lag elsewhere. In 2025–2026, low-income students ranked 28th of 390 (93rd percentile, 5 stars) and special education students 29th of 292 (90th percentile, 5 stars). Hispanic students ranked 60th of 194 (69th percentile) and English Language Learners 19th of 122 (84th percentile), down from 2nd of 119 a year earlier — both still above average but worth watching. With a 29.31% free/reduced lunch rate, $11,940 per-student spending, and a 19.1 student-teacher ratio, Danville delivers top-decile outcomes on mid-range resources.
