Summary

Evans School is an elementary school located in Evansville, Indiana, serving grades PK-6 with 487 students. It is part of the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation district, which is ranked 246 out of 380 districts in Indiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Evans School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Indiana elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of that time period.

Evans School significantly underperforms compared to the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 14.01% of Evans students were proficient or better in ILEARN English Language Arts, compared to 33.19% for the district and 40.3% statewide for 3rd grade. In math, only 17.12% of Evans students were proficient, compared to 34.76% for the district and 51.5% statewide for 3rd grade. Additionally, Evans School has had very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.8% to 27.1% over the past few years, significantly higher than the district average. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 67.32% to 84.97% over the past few years, much higher than the district average.

When comparing Evans School to other nearby elementary schools in the same district, such as Stockwell Elementary and Highland Elementary, it is clear that Evans is an outlier in terms of academic performance and other key metrics. These nearby schools significantly outperform Evans across all subject areas and grade levels, with proficiency rates 10-20 percentage points higher than Evans. This stark contrast indicates that the issues at Evans are likely school-specific rather than district-wide, and there appears to be a significant opportunity for improvement through targeted interventions and additional resources to address the unique challenges faced by the school's high-poverty student population.
