Summary:
Zip code 47136 contains just one elementary school: Lanesville Elementary School, a K–6 school with about 400 students in Lanesville, Indiana, part of Lanesville Community School Corp. Because it is the only elementary school in this zip code, there are no local peer schools to compare it against, so the most meaningful comparisons are with its district and with the state of Indiana.
The school's recent trajectory is the headline. In 2025–2026 it ranked 74th of 1,015 schools statewide — the 93rd percentile with 5 stars — up from 184th of 1,005 (82nd percentile, 4 stars) in 2024–2025 and 327th of 1,011 (68th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–2024, a 253-position gain in two years. Proficiency rose alongside it: all-grade Math reached 70.04%, all-grade ELA 63.82%, and all-grade Science 59.32%, with 3rd-grade Math at 85.96%, which is 34.06 percentage points above the state's 51.9%. Every reported 2025–2026 grade-level result is above the state — ELA by 16.11 to 27.62 points, Math by 18.49 to 34.06 points, Science by 13.35 to 19.69 points, and 5th-grade Social Studies by 13.61 points.
Attendance is another strength: chronic absenteeism is 8.2%, below the district's 9.7% and about half the state's 16.7%. Fifth-grade Social Studies shows a sharp reversal, from 36.84% (just under the state's 38.5%) to 60.81% (well above the state's 47.2%), though those results come from different student cohorts. For context, the school reports 28.5% free/reduced lunch, $8,769 per-student spending, and a 17.3 student-teacher ratio; these describe the school's setting rather than explain its results.
