Summary:

ZIP 46947 in Logansport, Indiana contains seven schools serving grades K–12 — three elementary schools (K–4), two middle schools (5–6 and 7–8), and two high schools — all within the Logansport Community School Corp district, which ranks 329 of 374 in Indiana, at the 12th percentile with 1 star. Total enrollment is 4,366 students, split across elementary (1,679), middle (1,295), and high school (1,392). The largest schools are Logansport Community High School (1,148) and Landis Elementary School (819); the smallest is The Academy at Logansport Community School (244).

Landis Elementary School is the clear bright spot: the only school above the 40th percentile (41st percentile, 2 stars), and it beats the district in ELA (32.92 vs 22.91), Math (41.85 vs 21.77), and Science (44.87 vs 28.66), even exceeding the state's 4th grade Science score. Logansport Community High School is comparatively stable, with an 88.4% graduation rate (district 79.1%, state 89.7%) and the area's lowest chronic absenteeism at 7.9%. By contrast, The Academy at Logansport Community School is a severe outlier: 1st percentile, 0 stars, a 55.8% graduation rate, 68.5% chronic absenteeism, 10% ELA, and 0% Math All Grades. Columbia Elementary School is the lowest-ranked elementary (10th percentile, 1 star; ELA 12.75), and Logansport Junior High School has a serious math weakness (Math All Grades 12.75; 8th grade 11.07 vs state 34.2).

Chronic absenteeism spans 7.9% to 68.5% (district 14.6%, state 16.7%), with most schools below the state except The Academy, whose rate is more than four times the district figure. Free/reduced lunch ranges from 61.06% to 84.49%, and per-student spending from $8,453 to $11,791 — highest at Logansport Community High School, lowest at The Academy. Notably, spending and class size don't track outcomes: Columbia Elementary has the lowest student-teacher ratio (13.0) and relatively high spending, yet the lowest elementary rank percentile, while Landis performs much better with moderate spending. Trends are mixed — Landis improved from the 28th/29th percentile to the 41st, Logansport Community High School slipped from 2 stars to 1, and Columbia fell from the 17th to the 10th percentile.
