Summary
Northeast Dubois Junior/Senior High School is a grades 7–12 school in Dubois, Indiana, serving 358 students as part of the Northeast Dubois County School Corp. It is a small-school setting in a relatively low-poverty local context: 19.55% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025, and the district ranks in the 81st percentile with 4 stars. The school’s current 2025–2026 rank is 68th percentile with 3 stars—above average statewide, but below its own strongest recent years (85th–88th percentile).
Its standout strengths are climate and completion. The school posted a 100% graduation rate in 2024–2025, ahead of Forest Park Junior-Senior High School (98.1%), Jasper High School (96.9%), Southridge High School (93.4%), and the state’s 89.7%. Chronic absenteeism was only 5.8%, far below the state’s 16.7% and lower than every nearby listed school; Forest Park was closest at 6.4%. Middle-school math is another clear strength: 7th-grade math was 53.13% proficient and 8th-grade math was 61.54%, both well above the state’s 35.9% and 34.2% and above comparable nearby schools. Eighth-grade ELA was 59.62%, above the state’s 44.0%, and Biology EOC was 57.81%, ahead of Paoli Junior & Senior High School, Shoals Community High School, Forest Park, Southridge, and Jasper.
The main academic gap is high school SAT readiness. SAT ERW was 45.0%, below the state’s 51.9% and below Forest Park, Jasper, Southridge, and Springs Valley Community High School. SAT Math was 25.0%, essentially the state’s 25.6%, but down from 40% in 2022–2023 and 2023–2024. Forest Park is a useful benchmark: similar size, spending, and student-teacher ratio, yet it ranks 91st percentile with 5 stars, with SAT ERW at 75.64% and SAT Math at 35.9%. Subgroup effectiveness is uneven—female students rank 86th percentile, while male students rank 37th and low-SES students 36th, down from 77th in 2022–2023. Overall, Northeast Dubois looks strong on attendance and graduation, with room to strengthen SAT performance and consistency across student groups.
