Summary:
ZIP code 47601 is served by a single middle school in this data set — Boonville Middle School, which enrolls 682 students in grades 6–8 as part of Warrick County School Corp. The school has earned 4 stars in each of the last three years and ranked 109 of 486 Indiana middle schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 78th percentile. That is a strong top-quartile standing, though it represents a modest slide from the 82nd percentile in 2023–2024 and the 80th percentile in 2024–2025. Its district is exceptionally high-performing — 5 stars and 93rd percentile — so Boonville Middle is a good school inside a very strong district.
Compared with the state, Boonville Middle comes out ahead in 7 of the 8 grade-level and subject results where a state value is available. Sixth- and eighth-grade math are the brightest spots, beating the state by 14.17 and 14.67 points, and 6th-grade science is up 12.91 points. Seventh grade is the clear weak spot: 7th-grade ELA scored 38.26% against the state's 41.70%, and 7th-grade math cleared the state by only 3.67 points. Compared with its own district, the school trails in every listed 2025–2026 measure, with the largest gaps in math (15.89 points) and ELA (12.78 points). Year over year, all-grade math fell 3.78 points (steeper than the district's 2.13-point drop) and science slipped 1.25 points while the district gained 2.07.
Attendance is a genuine strength: the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 11.3% is essentially tied with the district's 11.2% and roughly one-third lower than the state's 16.7%. Context metrics show 51.03% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, per-student spending of $12,130, and a 16:1 student-teacher ratio. Because this ZIP has only one listed middle school, families here have one public option in this data — and it performs above state norms in most areas while sitting below its own high-achieving district.
