Frequently asked questions

What is the best public school in Evansville?

Scott Elementary School in Evansville, Indiana ranks first among traditional public schools in Evansville with a Success Index (US) of 84.1 out of 100 (Enrollment: 475).

How are traditional public schools in Evansville ranked?

Are these 2025 rankings official?

No. They are computed by Success Tutoring from official American data (Urban Institute Education Data Portal (NCES CCD, EDFacts); NCES Common Core of Data).
