Summary:

ZIP code 46536 in Lakeville, Indiana is served by three schools, all part of Union-North United School Corp: one elementary school serving grades K–6 and two schools serving grades 7–12, with a combined enrollment of 1,221 students. The district as a whole is rated 2 stars and ranks 233rd out of 374 Indiana districts, in the 38th percentile — but that single rating hides very different school-level stories.

LaVille Elementary School (649 students) has the strongest attendance in the group, with chronic absenteeism of just 5.8% — less than half the district rate of 12.2% and about one-third the state rate of 16.7%. Its 6th Grade Math (42.55%) and 6th Grade Science (43.62%) results are above state averages, though most other grade-level ELA and Math results fall below state. LaVille Junior-Senior High School (546 students) showed the biggest improvement, rising to 3 stars and the 60th percentile (165th of 415) in 2025–2026, up from 2 stars and the 34th percentile the prior year. Its graduation rate of 97.8% beats both the district (97.1%) and state (89.7%), and SAT Reading/Writing (54.32%) is above the state's 51.9%. However, math is a real weakness: Math All Grades is 19.62% and SAT Math is 18.52%, both well below state, and chronic absenteeism runs 20.3%, above the state rate.

Lancer Virtual School is tiny, with only 26 students, and has the most challenging profile: the highest poverty indicator (69.23% free/reduced lunch), the highest absenteeism (25.0%), the lowest per-student spending ($2,894), and the highest student-teacher ratio (52.0). Its rank history is low (1 star and 0 stars in recent years), and most 2025–2026 test data is suppressed or unavailable, so those results should be treated as unknown rather than as failures. Still, its 91.6% graduation rate is above the state average. Across all three schools, free/reduced lunch ranges from 51.1% to 69.23%, and higher spending does not clearly translate into stronger outcomes.
