Hamilton Southeastern is one of the largest school corporations in Indiana, serving 21,299 students in the 2023-24 academic year.[5] The district is known for its consistently high academic ratings. Fourteen of the twenty-two schools in the district are four star schools as rated by the Indiana Department of Education.[6] Geist Elementary School was named a 2016 Blue Ribbon School by the US Department of Education, an award only given to 329 schools nationally.[7] The district had a 23.1% higher passing rate on the math/English combined ISTEP+ tests when compared to the state average in 2006-07.[8]
The school district has been the subject of controversy following a lawsuit that alleged the district failed to properly intervene in an act of bullying toward a student that resulted in a suicide.[9]
