Summary:
ZIP code 47805 in Terre Haute, Indiana is served by a single middle school, Otter Creek Middle School, which enrolls 670 students in grades 6–8 as part of Vigo County School Corp.
Because there is only one middle school in this ZIP code, the most useful comparisons are against the district and the state. Otter Creek has earned a 1-star rating in each of the last three school years and ranked 361st out of 486 Indiana schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 26th percentile — the bottom quarter of schools statewide. The district itself is rated 1 star and sits at the 28th percentile, so the school performs slightly below an already low-performing district. In 2025–2026 ILEARN results, 25.21% of students were proficient in English Language Arts, 17.46% in Math, and 27.72% in Science, all below district rates of 31.23%, 33%, and 35.12%. Math is the clearest weakness, with proficiency ranging from 15.94% in 7th grade to 19.13% in 6th grade. The strongest subject-grade result is 7th grade ELA at 28.5%.
Other metrics raise concerns. Chronic absenteeism was 30.5% in 2024–2025, above the district's 27.4% and nearly double the state's 16.7%, and 66.27% of students received free or reduced-price lunch. Per-student spending was $10,896 in 2023–2024, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.5 in 2024–2025. From the prior year, ELA rose from 22.26% to 25.21% and Math from 16.40% to 17.46%, but Science fell from 34.72% to 27.72%, a 7-point drop that moved it from slightly above the district to well below.
