Summary

Corydon Central High School is a 9–12 public high school at 375 Country Club Rd in Corydon, Indiana, serving 748 students as the largest school in the South Harrison Com Schools district.

Its long-run record is steady and solidly above average: a 4-star rating in eight of the last ten reported years, with a 2025-26 rank of 109th of 415 Indiana high schools (74th percentile). The standout strength is graduation — 97.6% in 2024-25, roughly 8 points above the state's 89.7% and a 6.1-point gain over four years. Science is the fastest-improving area: Biology proficiency climbed from 30.88% in 2022-23 to 56.25% in 2025-26, the highest among nearby schools except Floyd Central High School (72.77%). SAT reading and writing have been at or above the state in both recent years. Math is the persistent soft spot at 24.71% in 2025-26 — essentially the state average, and well behind Lanesville Junior-Senior High School (28.21%) and Floyd Central (41.23%).

Chronic absenteeism is the clearest internal weakness: 28.7% in 2024-25, nearly 10 points above the district's 18.9% and far above the state's 16.7% — an odd pairing with a graduation rate that matches the district's 97.8%. Female students also consistently outperform male students by roughly 13–15 percentile points. Among eight nearby schools, Corydon places third, behind Floyd Central (97th percentile) and Lanesville (79th), and ahead of South Central Junior & Senior High School (66th), North Harrison High School (63rd), New Albany Senior High School (43rd), and Crawford County High School (26th). Worth noting: Corydon outperforms South Central academically even though that same-district school spends over $5,500 more per student. The open questions are whether SAT math can be turned around and whether attendance can be addressed directly rather than offset at graduation time.
