Summary

Klondike Middle School is a grades 6–8 school serving 448 students at 3307 Klondike Rd in West Lafayette, Indiana, part of the Tippecanoe School Corp. It is a five-star school ranked 40th of 486 Indiana middle schools — the 92nd percentile — in 2025–26, its highest placement in the ten years of history provided and well above its own district's 78th-percentile, four-star standing.

English/language arts is the school's clear strength: 64.54% of students are proficient, 11–16 points above the district and 21–24 points above the state in every grade. Math is solid but not distinctive at 51.43% — only 0.2 points above the district. Science is the number worth watching: it fell from 60.61% to 54.05% in the latest year, barely above the district's 53.19%. The most useful comparison is Battle Ground Middle School, about 3.7 miles away with nearly the same free/reduced-lunch population (32.44% vs. 32.59%) yet higher math (+3.5 points) and science (+11.6 points) on slightly lower spending. East Tipp Middle School posts nearly identical results while serving a less disadvantaged population and spending less per student.

Chronic absenteeism is 9.2%, better than the district (10.5%) and the state (16.7%), though East Tipp Middle School and Battle Ground Middle School do better still. Per-student spending is mid-range at $10,478, and the student–teacher ratio has improved three years running to 16.4. Overall, Klondike is a consistent top-decile school with elite reading results, mid-pack math, a recent science dip, and efficient spending.

The school has some good teachers, and most of the staff is nice, but most the classes are an absolute joke. The administration at the school is terrible and gets nothing major to improve this school which desperately needs improvement. Close Quote
