Summary

Utica Elementary School is a PK–5 school with 608 students in Jeffersonville, IN, part of Greater Clark County Schools, in the northern Jeffersonville/Clarksville corridor. It is a 4-star school ranked 236 of 1,015 Indiana schools in 2025-26 (77th percentile), and it has held 4 stars for 10 straight years. That is well above its district, which ranks 201 of 374 (46th percentile, 2 stars), and Utica is the highest-ranked school in its nearby comparison set.

Parents should know Utica’s proficiency is strong. In 2025-26 ILEARN, 53.15% were proficient in ELA, 64.34% in math, and 55.68% in science, beating district rates by 15.6, 25.5, and 21.3 points. Math is a particular strength: third-grade math reached 71.91%. Compared with nearby schools, Utica outperforms same-district peers such as Riverside Elementary School, Northaven Elementary School, Parkwood Elementary School, and Franklin Square Elementary School by 35 to 64 percentile points. It also beats Silver Creek Elementary School—which has a similar poverty rate—by 3.6 points in ELA, 10.5 in math, and 9.8 in science, and outperforms Slate Run Elementary School and Fairmont Elementary School in math despite spending less per pupil than Fairmont. Chronic absenteeism is 8.8%, far below the district’s 27.3% and the state’s 16.7%.

Two areas to watch are ELA and fifth grade. ELA proficiency slipped from 64.23% in 2022-23 to 53.15% in 2025-26, and fifth-grade social studies was below the state at 41.28% versus 47.2%. Fifth grade is also Utica’s weakest tested grade in ELA and math. Poverty has risen, with free/reduced lunch up from 30.1% to 36.18% over three years, while math stayed mostly stable and the school held 4 stars. Utica spends $10,513 per pupil—less than several comparison schools—and has a 16.8 student-teacher ratio, the largest among its four same-district peers, yet still posts the top results in the group. Bottom line: Utica is a top-quartile, 4-star school that outperforms its district and several wealthier neighbors, with ELA and fifth grade as the clearest vulnerabilities.
