Summary

Scott Elementary School is a PK–6 school serving 475 students on Old State Road in northeastern Evansville (Vanderburgh County), part of the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp. It is a four-star school ranked in roughly the top 15% of Indiana elementary schools, sitting inside a district that ranks in the 31st percentile — and it scores 20 to 28 percentage points above its own district in every subject: 60.5% in English language arts, 62.63% in math, and 53.38% in science in 2025-26. Every tested grade level is above the state average.

The closest comparisons are its two nearby EVSC neighbors. Oak Hill Elementary (91st percentile) and McCutchanville Elementary School (93rd) both rank ahead of Scott (85th), even though Scott has the lowest poverty rate in the comparison group (13.05% free/reduced lunch vs. 19.96% and 19.59%) and the smallest classes (14.4 students per teacher). Scott edges Oak Hill in ELA by less than one point, but trails by about 2 points in math and 8.5 points in science, and trails McCutchanville by 8.7 points in math and 9.2 in science. Nearby out-of-district schools — Haubstadt Community School (70.75% math) and Elberfeld Elementary School (77.14% math) — show how high area math results can go.

Science is the soft spot, with 5th and 6th grade math and social studies close behind. Within the school, math runs 69.86% in 3rd grade and 70.77% in 4th but drops to 56.0% in 5th and 54.41% in 6th, while science has slid for three straight reported years (57.72% to 55.41% to 53.38%). Chronic absenteeism is 8.2% — well below the district (21.5%) and state (16.7%), but higher than every low-poverty peer in the group, and it has drifted upward over five years. ELA and math both rebounded in 2025-26, so the overall picture is strong with a few trends worth watching.
