There is only one elementary school located in the Enlace Academy district, Enlace Academy, a public charter school serving grades K-8 in Indianapolis, Indiana. The school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance, a high concentration of disadvantaged students, and chronic absenteeism issues.
Enlace Academy's academic performance, as measured by ILEARN test scores, is significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

The school's overall proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math for all grades were 8.24% and 9.13%, respectively, in the 2023-2024 school year.
The school's struggles are further reflected in its consistently low ranking, with Enlace Academy ranking in the bottom 10% of Indiana elementary schools, and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (83.74%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population, and a chronic absenteeism rate of 18.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average. These factors suggest that Enlace Academy is in need of significant interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
