Summary

North White Elementary School is a K–5 school serving 435 students in the small town of Monon, Indiana, and is part of North White School Corp. In 2025–2026 it ranked 843rd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools (17th percentile, 1 star) — a slight improvement over 2024–2025, when it ranked 885th of 1,005 (12th percentile), but still in the bottom fifth of the state. The longer trend is steeper: in 2017–2018 and 2018–2019 the school was around the 52nd–54th percentile with 3 stars, and it has held 1 star every year since 2020–2021.

Compared with nearby elementary schools, North White stands out as the lowest-performing academically, the highest-poverty, and the most crowded. Its 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch rate of 70.34% is above the nearby range of 34.9%–64.09%, and its student-teacher ratio of 19.6 is higher than nearby schools' 13.5–17.6. In 2025–2026, proficiency was below every nearby school with comparable data in ELA (15.98% vs. a nearby low of 24.44% at West Central Elementary School), Math (30.93% vs. 35.96% at Meadowlawn Elementary School), Science (16.67% vs. 27.27% at Pioneer Elementary School), and 5th-grade Social Studies (18.84% vs. 27.08% at West Central Elementary School). By contrast, chronic absenteeism was 8.5% in 2024–2025 — better than the district's 17.8% and the state's 16.7%, and second-lowest among nearby schools.

Math is the relative bright spot, but mainly in 3rd grade: 46.05% proficient vs. the state's 51.9%. In 4th and 5th grade, Math proficiency falls to 20.41% and 21.74%, and ELA is low in every tested grade (13.16% in 3rd, 20.41% in 4th, 15.94% in 5th). Science and Social Studies are also far below state averages. Recent results are mixed: Math all grades rose from 22.73% to 30.93% and 5th-grade Social Studies from 12.86% to 18.84%, while ELA barely moved (15.66% to 15.98%) and Science dipped. District context is challenging too — North White School Corp ranks 335th of 374 districts (10th percentile, 1 star), while nearby districts sit between the 40th and 83rd percentiles.
