Best Public Schools in Zip Code 46160

Summary:

The 46160 zip code is home to a single standout elementary school, Helmsburg Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and has 264 students enrolled. This school has consistently demonstrated strong academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding the Brown County School Corporation and the state of Indiana in many subject areas and grade levels.

Helmsburg Elementary School boasts a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and has ranked among the top 126 to 433 elementary schools in Indiana in recent years. The school's student-teacher ratio of 17.2 is relatively low, and its per-student spending of $12,252 for the 2021-2022 school year suggests a strong investment in its students' education. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 22.1% in the 2022-2023 school year is higher than the state average, which may be an area of concern that warrants further investigation.

While Helmsburg Elementary School's academic excellence is commendable, its student population is predominantly white, with relatively low representation from minority racial and ethnic groups. This demographic homogeneity may have implications for the educational experiences and perspectives of the students, and it is an aspect that the school community may want to address to ensure a more diverse and inclusive learning environment.
