Summary

Elberfeld Elementary School is a small K–5 school in the town of Elberfeld in southwestern Indiana, near Evansville, serving 184 students as part of the Warrick County School Corp, a district ranked 26th of 374 in Indiana (93rd percentile, 5 stars). In 2025–2026, Elberfeld ranked 126th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools, placing it at the 88th percentile with 4 stars. Its rank has moved around in recent years, from the 95th percentile in 2022–2023 down to 78th in 2023–2024, then back up to 89th and 88th.

Math is the school's clearest strength. All Grades math proficiency was 77.14% in 2025–2026 — the highest among every nearby school compared and well above the district's 63.23%, and ahead of McCutchanville Elementary School (71.37), Haubstadt Community School (70.75) and Oak Hill Elementary (64.6). Fourth-grade math reached 84.62%. ELA is strong overall at 60.0%, above the district and state, with 4th grade at an exceptional 76.92%, though 3rd grade ELA (44.74%) is the weakest grade-level result — still above the state but below the district. Fifth-grade social studies (57.14%) is the relative soft spot: above the state's 47.2% but below the district's 73.18% and behind nearby schools such as Oak Hill Elementary, McCutchanville Elementary School and Chandler Elementary School. Against its same-district peers, Elberfeld posts higher ELA and math than Chandler Elementary School and Lynnville Elementary School.

Attendance is a major institutional strength: only 4.1% of students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, compared with 11.2% in the district and 16.7% statewide. Elberfeld also spends the least of the nearby schools compared — $10,511 per student in 2023–2024 — while serving a higher free/reduced-lunch population (28.8%) than the most affluent nearby schools. Two caveats are worth keeping in mind: with only 184 students, grade-level percentages can shift on just a few students, and the 2023–2024 free/reduced-lunch figure of 1.67% is almost certainly a reporting anomaly rather than a real trend.
