Summary:
Indy Steam Academy is the sole elementary school located in the Indy Steam Academy district in Indianapolis, Indiana. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and faces significant academic challenges, with performance well below state averages across all subject areas.
Indy Steam Academy has a student enrollment of 163, with a predominantly African American (74.23%) and Hispanic (14.11%) student population. The school struggles with high chronic absenteeism, with over half (51.6%) of students missing a significant amount of instructional time. Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9:1 and relatively high spending of $17,486 per student, the school's academic performance remains a major concern, with proficiency rates on the ILEARN assessment ranging from just 2.94% in science to 19.05% in English language arts, all well below the state averages.
Overall, the data suggests that Indy Steam Academy is a struggling school that is underperforming academically compared to other schools in the state. Addressing the school's challenges, including high chronic absenteeism and low proficiency rates, will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve the quality of education and support for students.
