Shakamak Junior-Senior High School

Public Grades 7-12
Summary

Shakamak Junior-Senior High School is a 7–12 school in Jasonville, Indiana, a small community in the western part of the state, serving 295 students as part of MSD Shakamak Schools. Its latest state ranking is 228th of 429 schools (47th percentile, 2 stars) for 2024–2025, down from 119th of 432 (72nd percentile, 4 stars) the year before. The school has swung widely over the past decade, reaching the 92nd percentile in 2017–2018 and falling to the 29th percentile in 2021–2022. With only 295 students, a single class can shift these numbers, so one-year changes should be read with caution.

Graduation and attendance are real strengths. The 94.1% graduation rate in 2024–2025 is above Indiana's 89.7% and tied with Sullivan High School, though below Bloomfield High School (100%) and Linton-Stockton High School (98.7%). Chronic absenteeism is 12.2%, below the state's 16.7% and among the lowest nearby — only Sullivan (11.2%) and Clay City Junior-Senior High School (12.0%) are slightly lower. Biology EOC proficiency (58.7% in 2024–2025) topped the state's 45.6% and was the highest among nearby schools. Students from low-income families also tend to rank above the school as a whole, suggesting the school serves that group relatively well.

Math is the clearest weakness. On 2025–2026 ILEARN, all-grade math proficiency was 10.1%, with 7th grade at 9.62% (state 35.9%) and 8th grade at 10.64% (state 34.2%). SAT math was 9.8%, well below the state's 25.4% and lower than every nearby school except North Central Junior/Senior High School and Linton-Stockton High School. Middle school ELA also trails the state, though SAT EBRW reached 57.45% in 2023–2024, above the state that year. Shakamak spends $11,965 per student, second-lowest nearby, yet its student–teacher ratio of 10.9 is third-lowest — a possible efficiency advantage. The district overall ranks 291st of 374 (22nd percentile), below the school's own standing.
