Summary:
ZIP code 46347, covering Kouts, Indiana, contains a single high school: Kouts Middle/High School, which serves grades 6–12 with 381 students and belongs to the East Porter County School Corp, a district ranked 21st of 374 statewide (94th percentile, 5 stars). Because it is a combined middle/high school, its data blends middle-grade ILEARN results with high-school measures such as SAT, Biology end-of-course, and graduation rate.
Performance is strongest at the finish line. The graduation rate is 95.5%, above Indiana's 89.7% though below the district's 97.8%, and Biology end-of-course proficiency reached 85.71% in 2025–2026 — above the district's 76.44% and a sharp jump from 59.7% the year before. Middle-grade math is also a bright spot: 6th-grade math (52.54%) and 7th-grade math (52.5%) both beat district and state averages, and 8th-grade ELA (61.54%) is well above the state's 44%. The ranking history shows the school can perform at a high level, having placed 25th of 432 schools (94th percentile, 5 stars) in 2023–2024 before settling at 73rd of 415 (82nd percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–2026.
The clearest concern is SAT math, where only 19.57% of 11th graders met the benchmark — below the state's 25.6% and the district's 37.97%, and down from 27.27% a year earlier. Sixth-grade ELA is also low at 35.59%, under both the district (58.2%) and the state (41.3%), while all-grade ILEARN ELA and science slipped year over year. Chronic absenteeism sits at 15.0%, better than the state's 16.7% but nearly double the district's 8.7%. Overall, the school is solid by state standards but currently trails its high-performing district in most headline measures.
