Summary:
Andrew J Brown Academy is the sole elementary school in the data set, serving grades K-8 in Indianapolis, Indiana. The school has a total enrollment of 604 students, with a majority African American (44.37%) and Hispanic (46.69%) student population. Despite serving a community with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 89.24%, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Indiana elementary schools over the past three years.
Academically, Andrew J Brown Academy struggles, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Social Studies well below the state averages across all grade levels. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 37.2% is also significantly higher than the state average, which can further hinder student learning and progress. These challenges suggest the need for the school to implement more effective instructional strategies, attendance-focused initiatives, and additional support and resources to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
With only one school in the data set, it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons or identify standout schools in the area. Expanding the data set to include more Andrew J Brown Academy schools or schools in the surrounding district would provide valuable context and allow for a more comprehensive analysis of the educational landscape in this community.
