There is one middle school serving zip code 47140, Crawford County Middle School, which serves grades 6-8.

In zip code 47140, the sole middle school, Crawford County Middle School, educates 277 students in grades 6-8. This public school is part of the Crawford County Community School Corp, which ranks 217th out of 380 districts in Indiana and holds a 2-star rating. The school has a student-teacher ratio of 12.1 and a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year.

Crawford County Middle School demonstrates notable strengths, particularly in 8th-grade math, where proficiency rates in both the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years significantly exceed both the district and state averages. Math proficiency in 6th grade also aligns with or surpasses district and state benchmarks. However, ELA performance shows some inconsistency, with a dip in 7th-grade proficiency compared to other grades and the state average in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's overall ELA proficiency for all grades in 2024-2025 is above the district average. The school's statewide ranking has improved, moving from 312th in 2021-2022 to 221st in 2022-2023, accompanied by an increase in its SchoolDigger star rating from 2 to 3 stars.

The school's academic performance often mirrors or surpasses the averages within the Crawford County Community School Corp, suggesting it is performing well relative to its district. The higher spending per student of $13,067 is a positive indicator, though a comparison to district and state averages would provide further context on resource allocation. The chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% is a key area for improvement that could impact student learning. While the school shows promising trends and strengths in specific subjects like 8th-grade math, attention to 7th-grade ELA performance and chronic absenteeism is recommended.
