Summary:
ZIP code 46923 has one middle school, Delphi Community Middle School, serving grades 6–8 with 289 students in Delphi, Indiana, as part of Delphi Community School Corp. Since it is the only middle school in the ZIP code, there is no local peer comparison; the meaningful benchmarks are the district and Indiana state averages. The record covers ILEARN proficiency for 2025–2026 and 2024–2025, grade-level ILEARN for 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism and free/reduced lunch for 2024–2025, per-student spending for 2023–2024, and student-teacher ratio for 2024–2025. No test scores are suppressed, bounded, or given as ranges, so all listed scores are exact.
The clearest standout is attendance: chronic absenteeism in 2024–2025 was 2.6%, versus 12.2% for the district and 16.7% for the state—less than one-quarter of the district rate and roughly one-sixth of the state rate. Academically, results are mixed: all-grades ELA was 33.22% in 2025–2026 and 31.25% in 2024–2025, above district both years; all-grades math was 28.57% in 2025–2026 and 26.74% in 2024–2025, below district both years; science was above district in 2024–2025 at 48.96% but below district in 2025–2026 at 40.2%.
At the grade level in 2025–2026, every reported ILEARN result is below the Indiana state average. Math is weakest, especially 8th grade: 21.65% proficient versus 34.2% statewide, a gap of 12.55 percentage points. Math declines from 33.33% in 6th to 30.53% in 7th to 21.65% in 8th, while ELA peaks in 7th at 36.84%, still below state. The school is rated 2 stars, with a 46th percentile in 2025–2026 and a rank of 264 of 486, stable and slightly improved from 272 of 491 in 2023–2024. It has a 56.75% free/reduced lunch rate, a 12.9:1 student-teacher ratio, and spends $10,311 per student, but the dataset provides no state benchmarks for those three measures. The main takeaways are to preserve the strong attendance practices and investigate the math decline, particularly in 8th grade.
