Summary:
The 47670 zip code in Indiana is home to a single middle school, Princeton Community Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The school is part of the North Gibson School Corporation, a district ranked 247 out of 380 in the state and with a 2-star rating.
Princeton Community Middle School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 309 out of 489 Indiana middle schools in 2022-2023 to 342 out of 480 in 2024-2025, with a 1-star rating. The school's academic performance, as measured by ILEARN test scores, is consistently below the state averages across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (25.97%) and Math (23.11%) significantly lower than the state averages (40.5% and 39.7% respectively for 6th grade). Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.4, and its per-student spending for the 2023-2024 school year was $12,268, which is above the state average. However, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (49.18%) suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income population, which may present additional challenges in terms of student support and resources.
