Summary:

Vermillion includes four schools: two elementary schools serving prekindergarten through grade 6 and two high schools serving grades 7–12. In 2025–26, the elementary schools’ average proficiency was 18 percentage points above the state in English language arts (ELA), 22 points above in math and 29 points above in science; the high-school averages were 5, 6 and 2 points above the state, respectively. The key difference is that elementary results were consistently well above state levels, while high-school results were closer to the state and varied more from school to school.

Centralia Elementary stands out in math and especially science: its 68% in math and 88% in science led Frankfort Elementary by 8 and 41 percentage points. Frankfort Elementary narrowly led ELA, with 63.9% compared with Centralia Elementary’s 63.6%; both were well above the state’s 46%. Among the high schools, Frankfort High led in all three subjects, by 12 points in ELA, 17 in math and 3 in science, and exceeded state results in each. Centralia High was below the state in ELA and math, by about 1 and 2 points, while its science result was close to the state.

Recent results were mixed rather than pointing in one direction: elementary averages fell by 4 points in ELA, 8 in math and 9 in science from 2024–25, while high-school ELA rose 5 points but math fell 8 and science fell 12. Frankfort High improved in all three subjects; Centralia High’s math and science results dropped 21 and 26 points. SchoolDigger’s rankings moved differently from some score changes: Centralia High rose from the 32nd to the 57th percentile, while Frankfort High fell from the 91st to the 70th despite improving its scores. Frankfort High also had the lowest student–teacher ratio, 8.3, compared with 10.2 at Centralia High; the reported free- or reduced-price lunch rates were 27% and 28%, respectively. Chronic absenteeism was below the state’s 18% at all four schools. These two years of results are a limited snapshot, and the small enrollments can make grade-level results especially variable.
