Summary:
Zip code 47928 is home to two public schools, North Vermillion High School serving grades 7-12 and North Vermillion Elementary School serving grades PK-6. Both schools are part of the North Vermillion Community School Corporation, which is ranked 265 out of 380 districts in Indiana. The area's schools face challenges in academic performance, particularly in mathematics, and a significant portion of students experience chronic absenteeism.
While neither school is a top performer statewide, there are some relative strengths. North Vermillion High School boasts an 88.4% four-year graduation rate and shows a stronger performance in Biology compared to the state average. North Vermillion Elementary School demonstrates a notable strength in 3rd Grade Math proficiency, exceeding district and state averages in the 2023-2024 school year, and also performs better in 4th Grade English Language Arts than other grade levels within the school and the district average.
A significant concern for both schools is the consistent chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%. Academically, both schools generally fall below Indiana state averages in English Language Arts across various grades. Mathematics performance is particularly concerning, with the high school showing a 0% SAT Mathematics proficiency for 11th graders in 2023-2024 and very low ILEARN Math proficiency in 8th grade. Despite higher-than-average spending per student and favorable student-teacher ratios, academic outcomes, especially in math, suggest a need for targeted interventions and improved instructional strategies.
