Summary:
ZIP code 47928 contains exactly one public high school — North Vermillion High School in Cayuga, Indiana — a grades 7–12 school of 364 students in the North Vermillion Com School Corp, so it doubles as the area's middle school and its results often match the district's exactly.
Academically, the picture is mixed, with math the clearest concern. In 2025–2026, only 1.67% of 11th graders were proficient in SAT Math, versus 25.6% statewide, following 10.34% the prior year. ILEARN Math was 15.87% in 7th grade and 17.86% in 8th grade, compared with 35.9% and 34.2% statewide, and 16.81% across all grades. English results are less alarming but still behind: 7th grade ELA 21.88% versus 41.7% state, 8th grade 28.57% versus 44%, and SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing 41.67% versus 51.9%. Biology is a bright spot at 54.55% proficient in 2025–2026, up from 42.37%. The school ranked 261st of 415 Indiana high schools, at the 37th percentile with 2 stars — an improvement from the 32nd percentile two years earlier, though still in the lower third.
Attendance is a strength: chronic absenteeism was 11.4%, well below Indiana's 16.7%. The graduation rate, however, was 83.3%, about 6.4 percentage points below the state's 89.7%. Just over half of students (52.2%) qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending was $12,488, and the student-teacher ratio is a favorable 9.4. Because enrollment is small, year-to-year test percentages can swing sharply, so trends should be read cautiously.
