Summary

Klondike Elementary School is a K–5 school at 3311 Klondike Rd in West Lafayette, IN, serving 905 students in the Tippecanoe School Corp, making it the largest elementary school among the nearby comparison schools.

For 2025–2026, Klondike Elementary School ranked 228th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools—the 78th percentile with 4 stars. Its district, Tippecanoe School Corp, ranked 83rd of 374 districts, also 78th percentile and 4 stars. Chronic absenteeism is a standout strength: 8.5% in 2024–2025, below the district’s 10.5% and the state’s 16.7%, and far below Lafayette School Corp schools, which range from 15.1% to 32.6%. The free/reduced lunch rate is 35.91%, moderate for the area—higher than Burnett Creek Elementary School (28.66%) and West Lafayette Elementary School (25.62%) but much lower than Lafayette’s city schools. Spending is $9,424 per student, with a 16.4 student-teacher ratio. Compared with Burnett Creek Elementary School, a same-district K–5 school 3.24 miles away, Klondike Elementary School trails by roughly 13 points in ELA, 14 in Math, and 17 in Science, even though Burnett Creek spends a similar $9,287 per student. West Lafayette Elementary School, a K–3 school, is not directly comparable but scores higher. Klondike still outperforms the Tippecanoe School Corp and Lafayette School Corp averages in all three subjects.

Grade-level results show specific strengths and opportunities. Klondike Elementary School is strongest relative to the state in 4th Science (59.03%), 5th Social Studies (63.58%), 5th ELA (59.26%), and 4th Math (63.89%). The relative weak spots are 3rd ELA (42.07%, below the district’s 45.86% but above the state’s 40.8%) and 5th Math (46.91%, below the district’s 52.44% but above the state’s 42%). Trends are positive: rank percentile has risen from the mid-60s in the late 2010s to 78th, and ELA, Math, Science, attendance, poverty rate, and student-teacher ratio have generally improved. Overall, Klondike Elementary School is a large, improving, 4-star school with strong attendance, above-average results, and a moderately economically diverse population. Its main local challenge is closing the achievement gap with Burnett Creek Elementary School and the high-performing West Lafayette area schools, especially in 3rd ELA and 5th Math.
