Academically, Rensselaer Central Middle School's proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math are slightly below the Rensselaer Central School Corp district averages, but the school has consistently ranked in the top 25-26% of Indiana middle schools over the past three years and maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
