Summary:

In zip code 47715, there is one middle school, Plaza Park International Prep Academy, serving grades 6-8. This public school is part of the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp district.

Plaza Park International Prep Academy has an enrollment of 592 students and a student-teacher ratio of 14.4, which is relatively low. The school spends $11,357 per student. However, academic performance shows areas for improvement. In the 2024-2025 academic year, overall English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency was 32.61%, slightly below the district average of 33.19% and significantly below the state average of 40.5%. Math proficiency was 29.31%, also below the district average of 34.76%. Science proficiency was 27.18%, below the district average of 34.2%. Notably, the 8th grade demonstrated stronger performance in ELA (41.11%) and Math (30.77%) compared to other grades and district averages in ELA and Math respectively. A concerning trend observed is a general decline in ELA and Math proficiency rates from the 2023-2024 to the 2024-2025 academic years.

The school also faces challenges with student engagement, as indicated by a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% in the 2023-2024 school year. Furthermore, 55.24% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, suggesting a significant portion of the student body comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. While the school's statewide ranking for 2022-2023 was 246 out of 489 Indiana middle schools, earning it 2 stars out of 5, the observed trends in academic performance and absenteeism highlight areas that may require focused intervention and support to improve student outcomes.
