Summary

Washington Township Middle/High School is a public school in Valparaiso, IN, serving 456 students in grades 6–12 as part of the East Porter County School Corp, a small district that ranks 21st of 374 Indiana districts (94th percentile, 5 stars). The school is a consistent high performer: in 2025–2026 it ranked 20th of 415 Indiana high schools (95th percentile, 5 stars), and over the past decade it has usually been a 5-star school in the top 2–5% of the state, with its only recent dip in 2021–2022 (51st of 409, 88th percentile, 4 stars).

Graduation is a standout: 100.0% in 2022–2023, 2023–2024, and 2024–2025, above the district (97.8%) and the state (89.7%). Test scores are above the state in every reported grade and subject, including 8th grade ELA (77.46% proficient vs 44% statewide), 8th grade math (59.15% vs 34.2%), and SAT Math (43.48% vs 25.6%). Chronic absenteeism dropped from 20.2% in 2021–2022 to 10.4% in 2024–2025, below the state's 16.7% but above the district's 8.7%. The school also ranks highly for female, male, low-income, and special education students (12/298, 96th percentile in 2024–2025), suggesting its success isn't concentrated in a single group.

Among nearby schools, only Morgan Township Middle/High School (11/415) ranks higher; Washington outranks Chesterton Senior High School (30/415), Valparaiso High School (34/415), Wheeler High School (44/415), Kouts Middle/High School (73/415), Boone Grove High School (85/415), and Portage High School (265/415).

It does this with $10,520 per-student spending — below most nearby districts — and a 14:1 student-teacher ratio, lower than Portage, Chesterton, and Valparaiso.
