West Lafayette Community School Corporation

West Lafayette Community School Corporation assigns the entire district to three grade-band schools: West Lafayette Elementary serves kindergarten through grade three, West Lafayette Intermediate carries grades four through six, and West Lafayette Junior/Senior High covers grades seven through twelve. Assignments follow grade level across the corporation, with campus changes after third and sixth grade.

Grades four through six become a shared activity and academic community at WLIS. Orchestra and choir span the intermediate grades, and band begins in fifth grade. Students can also enter mathematics competitions, First Lego League, and other clubs; current events include sixth-grade MathCounts. German Klub connects sixth graders with Purdue students. These programs introduce teams and interests that can continue when the full cohort moves into the combined 7–12 junior/senior high.
