Summary

LaPorte High School is a large, PK–12 alternative-labeled public school at 602 “F” St in La Porte, Indiana, serving 1,807 students in La Porte Community School Corp, a district ranked 197th of 374 Indiana districts.

For parents, the standout success at LaPorte High School is graduation: it improved from 80.8% in 2020–21 to 94.1% in 2024–25, above its district’s 93.1% and the state’s 89.7%. By comparison, Northwest Indiana Online School had a similar 2024–25 graduation rate of 94.8%, though its district, Duneland School Corporation, was much higher at 98.8%; La Porte Online School did not report graduation data. The main concern is chronic absenteeism: the school’s rate was 29.4% in 2024–25, far above its district’s 18.5% and the state’s 16.7%, ending where it began in 2020–21. Northwest Indiana Online School’s chronic absenteeism was even higher, at 37.6%.

Academically, reading is close to the state and math is weaker. In 2025–26, SAT ERW was 50.27% at the school, above the district’s 48.37% but below the state’s 51.9%; SAT Math was 22.53%, above the district’s 20.8% but below the state’s 25.6%. Biology ILEARN improved sharply, from 24.15% in 2022–23 to 45.24% in 2024–25, essentially matching the state’s 45.6% and topping the district. The nearby online alternatives are much smaller—96 students at one and 130 at the other—with different online/alternative models and very high reported student-teacher ratios, so compare them cautiously. The school’s own student-teacher ratio was 16.4 in 2024–25, and per-student spending rose to $10,984 in 2023–24. Free/reduced lunch fell 16.01 points to 40.23% in 2024–25, a large one-year shift that may reflect reporting or eligibility changes as well as demographics.
