Impact Academy 2

Summary:

Impact Academy 2 is an alternative public school located in Indianapolis, Indiana, serving grades KG-12 with a total enrollment of 52 students. The school is part of the Indianapolis Public Schools district, which is ranked 290 out of 381 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Impact Academy 2 is struggling academically, with significantly lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the school had 0% proficiency in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math, compared to 20.72% and 19.27% for the district, respectively. The school's graduation rate data is not publicly available, which is concerning. However, the school has a very low student-teacher ratio of 5:1 and a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (44.23%), indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When compared to other nearby schools, Impact Academy 2 stands out as an outlier. For instance, Impact Academy 3 has a higher graduation rate (27.2%) and better test scores, while Impact Academy 1 has an even lower graduation rate (4.1%) and test scores. The school's racial makeup is also quite different from some of the other nearby schools, such as IN Math & Science Academy - North, which has a much higher percentage of African American and Hispanic students. Despite the high level of resources invested in Impact Academy 2, the academic performance remains a significant concern.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
