It is ranked 23rd of 415 Indiana high schools in 2025–2026 — the 94th percentile with 5 stars — and has earned 5 stars every listed year since 2021–2022.

Harrison is the second-highest-ranked school in its nearby comparison set, behind only West Lafayette Junior/Senior High School (5th statewide), and it substantially outranks its same-district peers: McCutcheon High School is 178th and Tippecanoe Online Academy is 367th. It also sits well ahead of Rossville Middle/Senior High School, Benton Central Junior-Senior High School, Frontier Junior-Senior High School, Delphi Community High School, and Jefferson High School on the main achievement measures. In 2025–2026, 68.66% of students met SAT Reading/Writing benchmarks (district 58.53%, state 51.9%) and 42.51% met SAT Math benchmarks (district 32.62%, state 25.6%). Biology ILEARN End of Course was 65.42%, about 11 points above the district. The graduation rate was 95.6% in 2024–2025, above both district and state.

One notable contrast is resources: Harrison has the largest enrollment, the lowest per-student spending among traditional high schools in its comparison set ($10,877), and the highest student-teacher ratio (18.3), yet produces top-decile results. Chronic absenteeism, at 13.4%, is below the state (16.7%) but above the district (10.5%).
