Summary

Caze Elementary School is a PK–5 school of 510 students located at 2013 S Green River Rd in Evansville, IN, on the city’s southeast side and part of the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp. It has spent ten reported years near the bottom of Indiana’s elementary rankings, never rising above the 13th percentile and earning zero stars in eight of those ten years.

In 2025–26 ILEARN results, proficiency was 14.08% in English language arts, 17.56% in math, 12% in science, and 14.29% in fifth-grade social studies—roughly 20 points below its own district in every subject. Among nearby schools, it ranks fifth lowest of 11 by statewide percentile, ahead of Glenwood Leadership Academy, Lodge Community School, Lincoln School, and Dexter Elementary School, but behind Vogel Elementary School, Hebron Elementary School, Harper Elementary School, and Stockwell Elementary School. Math consistently outruns ELA, suggesting literacy is the core instructional weakness, and fourth-grade ELA is a clear trough at 9.33% versus the state’s 42.2%. Fifth-grade social studies is the one unbroken bright spot, rising from 1.79% in 2022–23 to 14.29% in 2025–26, though still far below district and state averages.

Attendance has improved sharply: chronic absenteeism fell from 34.4% in 2020–21 to 19.8% in 2024–25, now below the district’s 21.5% but above the state’s 16.7%, and several academically stronger neighbors have worse attendance. Spending does not track outcomes here—higher-spending Lincoln School, Lodge Community School, and Glenwood Leadership Academy post lower ELA proficiency than Caze Elementary School, while lower-spending Hebron Elementary School, Stockwell Elementary School, and Vogel Elementary School outperform it. The closest twin, Lodge Community School, has the same 510 students but is outperformed by Caze Elementary School in ELA, math, and science. Joshua Academy, with the highest poverty and lowest spending in the group, still posts 27.97% ELA—nearly double—showing poverty is not a hard ceiling. The sharp drop in free/reduced lunch to 66.86% in 2024–25 should be read cautiously because it may reflect reporting changes.
