Summary

Tecumseh-Harrison Elementary School is a K–5 public elementary school in Vincennes, in southwestern Indiana, serving 380 students as part of the Vincennes Community School Corp, a district ranked 261st of 374 in Indiana (30th percentile, 2 stars).

Families should know that 2025–26 was a clear turnaround year. The school rose to 614th of 1,015 schools in Indiana (40th percentile, 2 stars), up from 791st of 1,005 (21st percentile, 1 star) in 2024–25—its highest percentile in the available history and a break from 1-star ratings from 2016–17 through 2024–25. Test scores improved broadly: English language arts +5.98 points, math +14.67 points, science +19.24 points, and social studies +7.2 points. Chronic absenteeism fell from 26.8% to 16.4%, now slightly better than the state’s 16.7% and the district’s 18.9%. Still, it remains much higher than same-district peers James Whitcomb Riley Elementary School (8.8%), Benjamin Franklin Elementary School (10.7%), and Francis Vigo Elementary School (11.3%). The school also serves a high-poverty population: 64.47% of students received free/reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, with per-student spending of $10,954 in 2023–24, lower than most nearby schools, and a student-teacher ratio of 13.8 in 2024–25.

Academically, math and science are relative strengths: all-grades math is 44.3%, above the district’s 36.24%, and science is 41.82%, above the district’s 33.66%. ELA is 29.38%, essentially equal to the district’s 29.41%, while 5th grade social studies (32.2%) is below both district (38.74%) and state (47.2%). The biggest internal story is a stark grade-level split. Third grade is exceptionally strong—math 75% and ELA 47.73%, both above state—while 5th grade is weak—math 18.64%, ELA 20.34%, and social studies 32.2%. Compared with nearby schools, Benjamin Franklin Elementary School ranks higher (52nd percentile, 3 stars), South Knox Elementary School is the regional standout (64th percentile, 3 stars), and Tecumseh-Harrison Elementary School is tied with James Whitcomb Riley Elementary School at 40th percentile, above Francis Vigo Elementary School (35th). Overall, this is an improving middle-tier school with real momentum, but it still needs to close upper-grade and ELA/social-studies gaps.
