Summary:
ZIP code 46504 covers Bourbon, Indiana, and is home to two public schools serving 931 students in grades PK–12: Triton Elementary School (PK–6, 517 students) and Triton Junior-Senior High School (7–12, 414 students), both part of Triton School Corporation, which ranks 66th of 374 Indiana districts — the 82nd percentile, with 4 stars.
The junior-senior high is the more consistently high-ranked of the two, placing 68th of 415 schools in 2025–2026 (84th percentile, 4 stars) and holding 4 stars for three straight years. Its graduation rate is 96.8% versus the state's 89.7%, and strengths include ELA all grades at 61.9, Biology EOC at 62.96, and SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing at 58 versus the state's 51.9. Math is the clear weak spot: ILEARN Math all grades is 25.85, with 7th grade at 26.32 versus the state's 35.9 and 8th grade at 25.35 versus 34.2. The elementary stands out for improvement and low absenteeism — ranked 297th of 1,015 (71st percentile, 4 stars), up from 390th of 1,005 and 461st of 1,011 in prior years, with chronic absenteeism of just 7.7% against the state's 16.7%. Math is a relative strength at 52.3 versus the district's 43.26, though 5th grade ELA and math are both 35.82, below state in both subjects.
Trends favor the elementary: ELA rose 7.26 points, math rose 6.45 points, and 5th-grade social studies jumped 17.91 points. The high school's ELA rose 13.31 points and biology 9.9, but math fell 5.84 points and SAT Math declined from 30.26 to 26. Both schools keep absenteeism well below the state's 16.7%; the high school spends $12,555 per student versus $10,104 at the elementary, with a lower student-teacher ratio (13.1 vs 15.9), yet its ILEARN math proficiency is much lower. The main opportunities are math in grades 7–8 and the 5th-grade ELA/math dip.
