Summary:

ZIP code 46723 covers Churubusco, Indiana, and is served by two public schools in the Smith-Green Community Schools district: Churubusco Elementary School, serving grades PK–5 with 500 students, and Churubusco Junior-Senior High School, serving grades 6–12 with 603 students — 1,103 students in all. Because there is no separate middle school, grades 6–8 are housed inside the junior-senior high. Both schools earned 4 stars in 2025–2026, and the district ranks 94th of 374 Indiana districts, at the 75th percentile.

Churubusco Elementary School is the academic standout. Its latest rank is 230 of 1,015 (77th percentile, 4 stars), up from 409 of 1,005 (59th percentile, 3 stars) a year earlier. Its all-grade ILEARN results — ELA 50.78%, math 62.02%, science 48.72% — beat district averages in every subject, with 3rd-grade math at 75.86% versus the state's 51.9% and 5th-grade social studies at 65.59% versus 47.2%. Reported chronic absenteeism is 0.0%, against 7.7% for the district and 16.7% for the state. Churubusco Junior-Senior High School ranks 78 of 415 (81st percentile, 4 stars) and posts strong capstone results: a 97.7% graduation rate, 8.0 points above the state; SAT evidence-based reading and writing at 55.06% and math at 26.97%, both above state; and Biology at 64.56% versus 45.6% for the state. Its middle-grade ILEARN results, however, trail the district — ELA 37.69%, math 25.38%, science 33.67% — with 6th- and 8th-grade math weakest and 7th-grade ELA a bright spot at 46.34%.

Absenteeism is concentrated at the junior-senior high, at 14.1% — below the state's 16.7% but above the district's 7.7% — while the elementary school's higher free/reduced lunch share (35.4% versus 27.2%) and lower per-student spending ($10,172 versus $11,798) come with stronger test results; the schools serve different grades and carry different costs, so this is a comparison rather than a conclusion. Science slipped at both schools in the latest ILEARN results, and non-test figures are largely single-year snapshots.
