Summary

Crothersville Junior-Senior High School is a small public school in Crothersville, Indiana, serving grades 6–12 with 221 students as the only school in Crothersville Community Schools, a district ranked 323rd out of 374 in Indiana. In 2025–2026, it ranked 365th out of 415 Indiana high schools—12th percentile, 1 star—down from 247th out of 429 in 2024–2025. It is the lowest-ranked nearby high school, behind Medora Junior & Senior High School (351st), Salem High School (195th), Brownstown Central High School (182nd), and Scottsburg Senior High School (141st). 52.5% of students were eligible for free or reduced lunch.

The graduation rate was 77.7%, below Indiana’s 89.7% and the lowest among nearby schools, including Salem High School (83.4%), Seymour Senior High School (88.0%), Austin High School (91.9%), Scottsburg Senior High School (92.1%), Brownstown Central High School (92.3%), Jennings County High School (95.5%), and Henryville Junior & Senior High School and Medora Junior & Senior High School (100.0%). Chronic absenteeism was 29.5% versus 16.7% statewide. Test proficiency was very low: SAT Reading/Writing 30.56% versus 51.9% statewide, SAT Math 2.78% versus 25.6%, and Biology 13.46%. ILEARN all-grade proficiency was ELA 18.09%, Math 14.89%, and Science 13.33%. Middle school was especially weak: 6th grade Math 6.67% versus 40.2% statewide and 8th grade Math 7.14% versus 34.2%.

Subgroup results swung widely, with male students at the 2nd percentile, low-socioeconomic-status students at the 15th percentile, and female students at the 20th percentile in 2025–2026. Math appears to be the most severe academic weakness, and middle school gaps suggest students arrive in high school already behind. Attendance and graduation are closely linked, so improving attendance could help graduation outcomes. Spending was $10,596 per student in 2023–2024, second-lowest among nearby schools, but resources are not the only explanation: some nearby schools with similar or higher poverty and spending achieve better results. There are signs of potential—in 2024–2025, SAT Reading/Writing was above the state rate (60% versus 54.5%) and low-socioeconomic-status performance reached the 82nd percentile—but 2025–2026 reversed sharply. Because the school is small, a few students can shift percentages dramatically, making targeted math, science, attendance, and early middle school interventions important.
