Summary:

Zip code 47591 covers Vincennes, Indiana, where 3 high schools serve a combined 1,383 students across two districts: Lincoln High School and Washington Learning Academy in Vincennes Community School Corp, and South Knox Middle-High School in South Knox School Corp. Grade spans differ: Lincoln serves grades 9–12, while South Knox serves 7–12 and Washington serves 6–12, so their "All Grades" ILEARN results mix middle and high school students and are not directly comparable to Lincoln's high-school-only results.

South Knox Middle-High School has the strongest overall profile: its district ranks 183 of 374 (51st percentile, 3 stars), it has the lowest chronic absenteeism (17.4%, close to the state's 16.7%) and the lowest free/reduced lunch rate (35.05%), a 97.9% graduation rate, and SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing of 53.66%, above the state's 51.9%. Its weak spot is math — SAT Math fell to 9.76% versus the state's 25.6%, and its rank dropped from the 72nd percentile to the 43rd. Lincoln High School is the largest school (704 students) with the highest graduation rate (98.7%) and the lowest student-teacher ratio (14.9), but chronic absenteeism is 24.2% and its SAT and Biology scores fall below state levels.

Washington Learning Academy faces severe challenges. The smallest school (117 students), it has held 0-star rankings across three years, a graduation rate of 85.2%, chronic absenteeism of 67.5% (over four times the state rate), free/reduced lunch of 71.79%, a student-teacher ratio of 30.4, and reported per-student spending of just $3,132. Its test scores are very low, including 0% in ILEARN ELA and Math. Notably, Lincoln and Washington share a district yet differ sharply, suggesting very different student needs or school missions.
