Summary

Fortville Elementary School is a K–4 school serving 789 students in Fortville, Indiana, part of the Mt Vernon Community School Corp. The district itself is relatively strong, ranking 98th of 374 Indiana districts, but the school sits in the middle tier: in 2025–2026 it ranked 380th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools (63rd percentile, 3 stars), a level it has held every year since 2020–2021.

Its clearest academic strength is math. All-grade math proficiency is 58.98%, well above the district's 51.49%, and both 3rd and 4th grade math exceed district and state levels; math also rose from 50.96% the year before. Attendance is a standout: chronic absenteeism is just 5.7%, far below the district's 9.4% and the state's 16.7%, and lower than McCordsville Elementary School (6.3%), Maple Ridge Elementary School (7.3%), Amy Beverland Elementary (7.1%), and Eden Elementary School (6.9%). Fortville also spends relatively generously at $12,662 per student, and its student–teacher ratio of 15.6 is lower than Maple Ridge's 19.6 and Amy Beverland's 21.3.

Reading and science are the weaker areas. ELA proficiency is 42.37%, slightly below the district's 43.78%, and science is 41.45%, below the district's 47.25%. Nearby Hamilton Southeastern Schools — Thorpe Creek, Fall Creek, Southeastern, and Geist Elementary — rank in the 94th–98th percentile, with ELA well above Fortville's. Fortville still outperforms McCordsville Elementary School and Geist Montessori Academy in every subject, and it serves a moderate poverty population (32.07% free/reduced lunch) — higher than the HSE schools but lower than Maple Ridge (45.8%), Amy Beverland (36%), and Oaklandon Elementary School (51.68%). Notably, some higher-poverty nearby schools post higher proficiency, suggesting factors beyond spending, class size, and attendance shape results.
