Summary

New Technical Institute is a small public high school serving grades 9–12 in Evansville, Indiana, with 264 students in the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp — far fewer than the 1,000-plus students at most nearby comprehensive high schools.

Its results stand out from its district. Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp ranks 258 of 374 districts statewide (31st percentile, 2 stars), yet New Technical Institute ranked 48 of 415 Indiana high schools in 2025–2026 (88th percentile, 4 stars) and reached the 91st percentile with 5 stars the two prior years. It is the top-ranked EVSC high school in this group, ahead of Central High School (84th percentile), North High School (76th), Francis Joseph Reitz High School (76th), and William Henry Harrison High School (31st); only Castle High School and Signature School Inc rank higher locally. Completion and attendance are strengths: a 98.0% graduation rate versus 88.3% district and 89.7% state, and 16.4% chronic absenteeism versus 21.5% district and 16.7% state.

Test scores are strong relative to the district and most neighbors: in 2025–2026 the school was above the district in all three reported areas and above the state in SAT ERW and SAT Math, with SAT Math essentially tied with Central. Signature School Inc and Castle High School remain ahead in every tested subject. The school appears especially effective with low-income students, ranking at the 92nd–98th percentiles over the last three reported years, and special education students ranked at the 95th percentile in 2025–2026 — notable given that 39.02% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. It does this while spending $11,435 per student, less than Francis Joseph Reitz High School, William Henry Harrison High School, Central High School, and Boonville High School. With 264 students, year-to-year figures can swing, so the slip from the 91st to the 88th percentile is worth watching but doesn't change the overall picture.
