Summary:
Zip code 42348 has one high-school-level listing: Hancock County Alternative Program, which serves grades 6–12 and has 16 students. Its results provide a picture of this single alternative program, not a comparison among several area high schools. The clearest concern in the available same-year comparisons is chronic absenteeism: in 2025–2026, 33% of students were chronically absent, above both district and state rates.
There is no separate top- or bottom-performing school to identify in this one-school list. The school’s 2025–2026 chronic absenteeism rate was 13 percentage points above the Hancock County district rate of 20% and 10 points above the state rate of 24%. School proficiency results are unavailable for all six tested subjects, so the school cannot be ranked by subject. District results offer context only: they were strongest relative to the state in grade-11 writing, 14 points higher, and grade-10 mathematics, 12 points higher; district science and social studies were each 2 points lower than the state.
The available results do not show whether the school’s outcomes are improving or declining over time. Its reported graduation rate was 50% in 2023–2024, while the district’s 96% and state’s 94% figures are from 2025–2026, so they are not same-year comparisons. The school reported a student–teacher ratio of 8 and 69% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these are useful context, not explanations for its results. SchoolDigger’s rank of 53 out of 158, 66th percentile, and 3-star rating describe the district, not this school. With no reportable school proficiency scores or multiple comparable years, the available data cannot establish a school-level subject profile or a trend.
