Summary

North Daviess Junior-Senior High School is a 7–12 school serving 464 students in Elnora, Indiana, part of North Daviess Com Schools in a rural area of southwestern Indiana.

The school earned 3 stars in 2025–2026, ranking in the 59th percentile of Indiana high schools — a middle-to-upper-middle position statewide and above most nearby schools. Only Barr Reeve Middle/High School sits clearly higher, at the 96th percentile with 5 stars, while Loogootee High School at the 61st percentile and Bloomfield High School at the 56th are close peers. Completion and attendance are the school's clearest strengths: its 97.1% graduation rate beats Indiana's 89.7%, and its 13.2% chronic absenteeism is below the state's 16.7% and lower than most surrounding schools. The school reached a 4-star, 80th-percentile peak in 2023–2024 before settling back to its current level.

Academic results are more mixed, with reading stronger than math. SAT reading and writing was 52.63%, slightly above the state's 51.9%, but SAT math was 19.3% against the state's 25.6%, and 7th- and 8th-grade ILEARN math also fell below state levels. Low-income students were a bright spot, ranking in the 87th percentile with 4 stars, while special education students ranked in the 13th percentile with 1 star — the school's sharpest equity gap. Per-student spending reached $13,922 and the student-teacher ratio improved to 12.7. Overall, this is a solidly above-average local school with strong graduation and attendance and a clear need to strengthen math.
