Summary:
ZIP code 47140 is a rural part of Crawford County, Indiana, where three schools serve about 687 students — all in the Crawford County Community School Corp: one middle school for grades 6–8 and two high schools. The standout is Crawford County Middle School, which has earned 4 stars and ranked in the top quarter of Indiana middle schools in each of the last three years (113th of 486 in 2025–2026). Its math results beat both the district and the state, with 8th grade math proficiency at 65.26% versus 34.2% statewide, even though 65.92% of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Its 13.1% chronic absenteeism rate is also lower than the state's.
Crawford County High School is the largest school in the ZIP with 369 students. It graduates 93.3% of students, above the district's 83.1% and the state's 89.7%, but readiness measures lag: SAT math proficiency was 1.19% in 2025–2026, down from 11.83% the prior year, against a state figure of 25.6%, and chronic absenteeism is 18.1%, above both the district's 12.7% and the state's 16.7%. It ranks in the 26th percentile with 1 star.
Crawford County Virtual Academy is very small (51 students, grades 6–12) and has the weakest reported outcomes: a 29.4% graduation rate, a 5th percentile ranking with 0 stars, and 0% SAT math proficiency in 2024–2025. Most of its 2025–2026 school-level results are suppressed because of small group sizes, so those figures should be read with caution, and its unusual 0.0% chronic absenteeism rate likely reflects virtual attendance reporting. Overall, families moving here will find a strong middle school, a high school that graduates students but struggles with college-readiness test scores, and a tiny virtual option with limited comparable data.
