Summary

Milan Middle School is a small middle school in Milan, Indiana, serving grades 7–8 with 159 students as part of Milan Community Schools. In 2025–2026 it ranked 213th of 486 Indiana middle schools — the 56th percentile with 3 stars — a clear improvement from 2024–2025, when it ranked 300th of 480 (38th percentile, 2 stars).

Academically, the school's strength is English language arts and its weak spot is math. All-grade ELA proficiency is 41.45%, well above the district's 31.28%, and 7th-grade ELA is 46.99%, above the state's 41.7%. But all-grade math is 28.95%, far below the district's 42.73%. Eighth grade is the biggest concern: 8th-grade math proficiency is 21.74% against the state's 34.2%, and 8th-grade ELA is 34.78% against the state's 44%. Notably, Milan Intermediate School (grades 5–6) shows the opposite pattern — strong math (45.39%) but weaker ELA (28.37%) — suggesting the district may want to examine how instruction and curriculum line up across the grade 5–6 to 7–8 transition.

Compared with nearby schools, Milan is mid-pack. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 10.4% is better than the district's 11.8% and the state's 16.7%, though Batesville Middle School (5.3%), East Central Middle School (7.6%), Ohio County Middle School (7.7%), Greendale Middle School (9.2%), and South Ripley Junior High School (9.6%) all do better. About 55.97% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, a rising figure higher than most neighbors. The most useful benchmark is South Ripley Junior High School: nearly identical size (161 students) and similar poverty, yet much stronger results — 60.43% ELA and 42.45% math. Milan spends $12,462 per student with a 12.9 student/teacher ratio, so resources alone don't explain the gap.
