Summary

Beacon Online Academy of Indiana at Madison-Grant is a small online high school serving 83 students in grades 9–12 in Fairmount, Indiana, within the Madison-Grant United School Corp. It shares an address with Madison-Grant Junior/Senior High School and Virtual Preparatory Academy of Indiana at Madison-Grant 9–12.

The school ranks 374th of 415 Indiana high schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 10th percentile with 1 star. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate is 57.1%, compared with 75.0% for the district and 89.7% for the state—far below Madison-Grant Junior/Senior High School (98.8%) and slightly below Virtual Preparatory Academy (64.7%). Test proficiency is weak: SAT Math is 0% (district 4.41%, state 25.6%), SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing is 27.27% (district 29.96%, state 51.9%), and Biology ILEARN is 20% (district 27.16%). The student-teacher ratio is 21.6, much higher than the same-district brick-and-mortar school’s 13.7, though similar to Virtual Preparatory’s 22.9. The free/reduced lunch rate is 14.46%, the lowest among nearby schools, yet performance remains below schools with much higher poverty indicators. No chronic absenteeism or spending data is reported for Beacon.

Subgroup effectiveness is low across the board, with no subgroup reaching even the 30th percentile statewide; the highest relative result is for low-income students at the 27th percentile. As a virtual online academy, Beacon closely resembles the same-address Virtual Preparatory Academy in its high student-teacher ratio and low outcomes, while contrasting sharply with the brick-and-mortar Madison-Grant Junior/Senior High School, which has much stronger graduation, attendance, and test results. Missing attendance and spending data make it harder to fully explain this performance profile, but the available numbers point to a bottom-decile school with significant challenges.
