Summary:
ZIP code 47715 in Evansville contains five schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade: two elementary schools (Stockwell and Caze), one middle school (Plaza Park), and two high schools (William Henry Harrison and Excel Center of Evansville Southeast). Four of the five belong to Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp, a district ranked 258th of 374 Indiana districts, in the 31st percentile with 2 stars, so most schools here perform below district and state benchmarks. Total enrollment is about 3,155 students, with William Henry Harrison High School the largest at 1,332 and Excel Center of Evansville Southeast the smallest at 158.
Among the ranked EVSC schools, Plaza Park International Prep Academy is the strongest relative performer at the 36th percentile, though it slipped from the 52nd percentile and lost a star. Its 8th grade ELA and Math beat district averages, but its all-grade scores still trail the district. Harrison High School graduates 91.3% of students, above the district's 88.3% and the state's 89.7%, but its chronic absenteeism of 35.4% is more than double the state rate, and its SAT Math proficiency is very low. Caze Elementary School is the lowest performer — 7th percentile, 0 stars — with the highest free/reduced lunch rate (66.86%) and highest per-student spending ($12,755), yet the weakest ELA, Math, and Science results.
Stockwell Elementary School is low-ranked overall (24th percentile, 1 star), but its 5th grade ELA and Social Studies exceed district averages. Math is a shared weakness across the ZIP, with every ranked school below the district's 34.47%. Excel Center of Evansville Southeast is a major outlier: a graduation rate of 16.6% and a 26.3 student-teacher ratio, with no comparable test, rank, or spending data, so it should not be compared directly with the comprehensive high schools.
