Summary:
The 46516 zip code area is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, spread across two different school districts - Concord Community Schools and Elkhart Community Schools.
Among the standout schools in the area, Concord East Side Elementary School and Riverview Elementary School have the highest overall ILEARN proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math, while the Excel Center - Elkhart, a public charter high school, has a very low 4-year graduation rate of only 5.9% despite serving a student population that is 54% Hispanic and 16% African American.
The data reveals stark differences in academic performance, with socioeconomic factors like free/reduced lunch rates appearing to correlate with school performance. Addressing chronic absenteeism, which ranges from 13.8% at Concord East Side Elementary to 96.0% at Excel Center - Elkhart, could be a key lever for improving academic outcomes across the board.
