Summary:
ZIP code 47920 in Battle Ground, Indiana is served by a single public elementary school, Battle Ground Elementary School, which enrolls 652 students in kindergarten through 5th grade and belongs to Tippecanoe School Corp. Because it is the only school in the area, parents have no local comparison point — the useful benchmarks are how the school stacks up against its district and against Indiana as a whole.
The school's record is consistently strong. It earned 4 stars in each of the three reported school years and ranked 273rd of 1,015 Indiana schools in 2025–26, placing it in the top roughly 27% statewide; its district sits at the 78th percentile among 374 districts. Against the state, the school outperforms in 7 of 8 grade-level comparisons for 2025–26, most dramatically in 5th grade English Language Arts (57.89 vs. 42.2) and 5th grade Social Studies (59.65 vs. 47.2), with 4th grade Science also well ahead (55.45 vs. 43.8). Attendance is a real bright spot: chronic absenteeism is 10.3%, essentially matching the district's 10.5% and far below Indiana's 16.7%.
The one clear weak spot is 5th grade Math, where the school scores 40.35 — about 12 points below its district (52.44) and slightly below the state (42.0). That is the only subject/grade where it trails Indiana, and notably those same 5th graders scored highly in ELA and Social Studies, suggesting a subject-specific issue rather than a broad weakness. Within the school, ELA climbs across grades (44.23 in 3rd, 51.82 in 4th, 57.89 in 5th) while Math declines (59.62, 57.27, 40.35). Fifth-grade Social Studies also dropped year over year from 66.96 to 59.65, though it still beats the state. Roughly 36.35% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, per-student spending is $10,010, and the student–teacher ratio is 16.7 to 1.
