Schools in Zip Code 46125

ZIP code 46125 covers Eminence, Indiana, a small rural community served by two public schools within the Eminence Community School Corp: Eminence Elementary School (grades PK–5, 111 students) and Eminence Junior-Senior High School (grades 6–12, 148 students). Both are located at 6760 N Sr 42, and together they enroll 259 students, making this one of Indiana's smallest districts.

The two schools look quite different. Eminence Elementary School is the relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism is just 8.9%, well below the district's 21.5% and the state's 16.7%, and its math proficiency (39.34%) and science proficiency (44.44%) are above the district. It is rated 2 stars and ranks in the 34th percentile of Indiana schools. Its weakness is reading — ELA proficiency is only 18.03%, and 5th grade ELA is 5%. Eminence Junior-Senior High School shows the reverse pattern: ELA proficiency is 31.08%, above the district's 25.19%, but chronic absenteeism is 31.1%, math proficiency is 20.27%, science is 36.67%, and SAT Math proficiency was 0% in both years shown. It is rated 1 star, ranks in the 17th percentile, and its graduation rate of 84.6% trails the state's 89.7%.

District-wide, Eminence ranks 280 out of 374 Indiana districts — the 25th percentile — with 1 star. Per-student spending is about $17,343 at the elementary and $16,656 at the high school, with student/teacher ratios of 11.1 and 8.7; the more favorable high school ratio does not line up with its weaker outcomes. Roughly 51% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Because enrollment is so small, percentages can swing sharply from year to year — elementary ELA fell from 39.66% to 18.03%, while high school ELA rose from 24.59% to 31.08%.
