High Schools in North Gibson School Corporation

The North Gibson School Corporation in Indiana has only one high school, Princeton Community High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has faced some academic challenges in recent years, with its ranking dropping from 204 out of 431 Indiana high schools in 2023-2024 to 281 out of 398 in 2022-2023, along with a decrease in its SchoolDigger rating from 3 stars to 1 star.

While Princeton Community High School's performance in SAT/Evidence-based Reading and Writing is relatively strong, with over 50% of 11th-grade students proficient or better, its performance in SAT/Mathematics and ILEARN/Biology is significantly weaker, with only around 15-20% of students reaching proficiency. This suggests an imbalance in the school's academic focus or curriculum. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high-need population, with over 40% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the academic challenges.

Despite these challenges, Princeton Community High School maintains a respectable 91.5% four-year graduation rate, though its chronic absenteeism rate of 14.6% is higher than desired. The school's per-student spending of $12,586 and a student-to-teacher ratio of 12.7 suggest that the district is investing resources in the school, but more targeted interventions and support may be needed to address the identified academic performance issues and better serve the needs of the student population.
