The district ranks 104 of 374 in Indiana (72nd percentile, 4 stars), while Waverly itself ranks 348 of 1,015 for 2025–2026 (66th percentile, 3 stars). That is a notable drop from 271 of 1,005 (73rd percentile, 4 stars) in 2024–2025 and 179 of 1,011 (82nd percentile, 4 stars) in 2023–2024, and from a long run in the 77th–90th percentile with 4 stars from 2015–2016 through 2022–2023. The school remains above the state median, but has slipped from its earlier 4-star profile.
Math is Waverly's clear academic strength: all-grade math proficiency is 62.26%, about 9 points above the district's 53.2%, and Waverly is above the state in math at every grade level and above the district in grades 4, 5, and 6. Its math score beats same-district Neil Armstrong Elementary School (52.17%) and North Madison Elementary School (60.87%), as well as Pleasant Grove Elementary School, Sugar Grove Elementary School, Walnut Grove Elementary School, Brooklyn STEM Academy, and West Newton Elementary School, trailing only Green Township Elementary School, Maple Grove Elementary School, and Center Grove Elementary School. English/language arts is weaker: all-grade ELA is 41.04%, below the district's 45.79%. Fifth-grade ELA (50%) is a bright spot; 6th-grade ELA (31.58%) is the main weakness. Science is mixed — all-grade 35.51%, below district (41.32%) — but 4th-grade science (54%) is strong while 6th-grade science (19.3%) is very low. Fifth-grade social studies (50%) beats both district and state.
Attendance is a standout strength: chronic absenteeism is 6.9%, well below the district's 13.3% and the state's 16.7%, improving from 14.6% in 2022–2023. Free/reduced lunch is 49.01%, up from 45.33% and 41.19%. Waverly spends $11,664 per student, and its student/teacher ratio is 18.7, up from 17.0 and 16.2. Overall, Waverly is an above-average school with strong math and excellent attendance; returning to its earlier 4-star trajectory likely means targeted work in literacy and science, especially in 6th grade.
