Zip code 46158 is home to one public high school, Mooresville High School, serving grades 9-12. This school is part of the Mooresville Con School Corp and is ranked 174 out of 398 Indiana high schools for the 2022-2023 academic year, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Mooresville High School has a student enrollment of 1,398 students and a four-year graduation rate of 88.4%, which is a strong indicator of student success in completing their high school education. However, the school's academic performance in standardized tests, including ILEARN/Biology and SATs, consistently falls below both the district and state averages. Notably, there was an improvement in SAT Mathematics proficiency from 18.48% in the 2023-2024 academic year to 25.23% in 2024-2025, though it still lags behind state averages. Conversely, SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing proficiency saw a slight decrease. The school has a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which is a concern and may impact student outcomes. With 40.77% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school serves a significant population with socioeconomic needs.
The school spends $10,965 per student, with a student-teacher ratio of 20.7. While the graduation rate is commendable, the lower-than-average test scores suggest potential areas for academic improvement. Addressing the chronic absenteeism rate and exploring strategies to enhance student performance in core subjects are key considerations for the school and district. Understanding how the per-student spending is allocated to support student learning, especially for students facing socioeconomic challenges, would provide further insight into the school's overall effectiveness.
