Summary

Edgewood Junior High School is a grade 6–8 middle school in Ellettsville, Indiana, enrolling 627 students as part of the Richland-Bean Blossom C S C district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 149th of 486 Indiana schools — the 69th percentile with 3 stars — placing it above the state median, while its district ranked 101st of 374 (73rd percentile, 4 stars). That is a big change from 2016–2017, when Edgewood ranked 37th of 472 (92nd percentile, 5 stars). After falling to the 65th percentile in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023, results have steadied in the high 60s.

Academically, Edgewood's 2025–2026 all-grade proficiency was 43.67% in English Language Arts, 42.05% in Math, and 46.77% in Science. That beats most nearby middle schools, including John R. Wooden Middle School, Bell Intermediate Academy, and Lora L Batchelor Middle School, and edges out Tri-North Middle School in ELA, though Jackson Creek Middle School remains far ahead (59.86% ELA, 63.53% Math). Within its own district, Edgewood is above the district in ELA but below in Math (49.08%) and Science (53.5%). Notably, it achieves this with the lowest per-pupil spending in the comparison group ($10,777) and a higher student-teacher ratio (14.8, second only to Jackson Creek's 15.2), while its free/reduced-lunch rate of 40.51% is lower than almost every nearby school except Jackson Creek.

Grade-level results show 6th grade as a strength (ELA 51.24% and Math 47.76%, both well above state), and 8th-grade Math strong at 42.93% versus 34.2% statewide. The weak spot is 7th-grade ELA at 37.62%, below the state's 41.7%. Chronic absenteeism was 14.4% — better than the state (16.7%) and most peers, but above the district's 12.5%. Math and Science have improved each year since 2022–2023, and a reported 100% Biology EOC proficiency is likely a small, select group rather than a broad measure of schoolwide science performance.
