Summary

North Montgomery Middle School is a 6–8 school in Crawfordsville, IN, serving about 400 students as part of the North Montgomery Com School Corp, a district ranked 47th of 374 Indiana districts. The school is ranked 102nd of 486 Indiana middle schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 79th percentile with 4 stars — up from 191st of 480 and 3 stars the year before. That is roughly a 19-point percentile jump in a single year and its best showing since 2020–2021.

Compared with nearby schools, North Montgomery is one of the stronger performers. Southmont Junior High School outranks it at 52nd of 486, with higher ELA (61.11% vs. 46.44%), math (50.56% vs. 48.89%) and science (54.63% vs. 50.69%) scores. Still, North Montgomery ranks second among the nearby group in math and third in ELA and science, ahead of Wainwright Middle School, Wea Ridge Middle School, Crawfordsville Middle School, Southwestern Middle School and Lafayette Tecumseh Junior High School. Math is a relative strength but uneven by grade: 6th-grade math is 61.81%, 21.6 points above the state, and 7th-grade math is 50.81%, while 8th-grade math drops to 33.81%, essentially at the state average. Science is a quiet strength at 50.69%, with 6th-grade science 9.5 points above the state.

Chronic absenteeism is the main non-academic watch point. At 14.5%, it is better than the state average of 16.7% but slightly above the district's 12.2% and higher than Wainwright (8.1%), Crawfordsville (5.8%) and Wea Ridge (11.8%). About 39.25% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, similar to Southmont and Wainwright but well below Crawfordsville and Lafayette Tecumseh. North Montgomery also gets efficient results: it has the lowest student–teacher ratio (13.3) and second-lowest per-student spending ($10,280) among nearby schools, yet outperforms several higher-spending schools. Overall, this is a solid, improving school with momentum; the biggest opportunities are closing the ELA gap with Southmont, lifting 8th-grade math, and reducing absenteeism.
