Summary:

ZIP code 47710 contains five schools serving about 3,283 students in total — two high schools (Central High School and New Technical Institute), one middle school (Thompkins Middle School), and two elementary schools, one of which (Cedar Hall Community School) serves grades PK–8 — all within the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp, which is rated at the 31st percentile with 2 stars.

School-level results in this ZIP code vary far more than that district rating suggests. New Technical Institute ranked 48 of 415 (88th percentile, 4 stars) and posts a 98.0% graduation rate, while spending the least per student ($11,435) and running the largest classes (17.3 students per teacher). Central High School ranked 66 of 415 (84th percentile, 4 stars), up sharply from 159 of 429 the year before, and beats district and state proficiency in Biology, SAT Reading/Writing, and SAT Math — though its 86.8% graduation rate and 27.4% chronic absenteeism are weaker. Highland Elementary ranked in the 60th percentile with 3 stars, recorded the lowest absenteeism in the group at 11.8%, and beat district averages in ELA (47.06%), Math (49.36%), and Science (37.68%).

Thompkins Middle School has slipped from the 81st percentile and 4 stars in 2023-24 to the 50th percentile and 3 stars in 2025-26, with Math at 29.59% falling below the district's 34.47% and 6th grade Math at just 25.82% against the state's 40.2%. Cedar Hall Community School is the lowest performer: 16th percentile, 1 star, with all-grade proficiency far below district levels (ELA 19.05%, Math 20.77%, Science 17.82%), the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 71.17%, and absenteeism of 25.0% — despite having the highest per-student spending ($14,414) and the smallest classes (11.4).
