Summary

Tri-County Intermediate School in Wolcott, Indiana, is a grades 3–6 school serving 258 students as part of Tri-County School Corporation, a district that ranks 141st of 374 Indiana districts (62nd percentile, 3 stars). The school placed 402nd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools in 2025–26 — 60th percentile, 3 stars — and about 41% of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, math and science are the bright spots. All-grade math proficiency is 48.61% versus the district's 41.69%, and science is 44.44%, the highest among comparable nearby schools. English language arts sits at 40.24%, essentially the district average, and it is the weaker side: 4th grade is above the state in ELA, math, and science, while 6th grade ELA is the clearest concern at 33.33% against the state's 41.30%. The school has rebounded from its pandemic-era dip — from the 46th percentile in 2020–21 back to the 60th in 2025–26 — but has not returned to the 78th–81st percentile it reached in 2017–18 and 2018–19.

Attendance is a genuine strength: 9.5% chronic absenteeism in 2024–25 is below both the district (11.7%) and the state (16.7%), and the school has stayed under both benchmarks every year listed. Resources are relatively favorable, with per-student spending rising from $9,964 in 2020–21 to $12,804 in 2023–24 and a 13.9 student-teacher ratio. Compared with neighbors, it is roughly tied with Otterbein Elementary School, South Newton Elementary School, and Van Rensselaer Elementary School, and clearly ahead of Prairie Crossing Elementary School and North White Elementary School. Note that nearby schools serve different grade spans, and small grade cohorts can make yearly percentages swing.
