Best Public Schools in Zip Code 46552

Summary:

Olive Township Elementary School stands out as the top-performing school in the area, consistently ranking among the top 15% of Indiana elementary schools with a 4-star rating. The school significantly outperforms the district and state averages in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math proficiency, has the lowest chronic absenteeism rate, and spends the least per student compared to the other schools. New Prairie High School also demonstrates strong performance, maintaining a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 30% of Indiana high schools, with an exceptional 97.2% four-year graduation rate and solid ILEARN/SAT proficiency scores.

While the schools in the New Prairie United School Corp appear to be well-resourced, with relatively low student-teacher ratios and moderate per-student spending, there may be opportunities to further improve outcomes, especially at the New Prairie Middle School, where ILEARN scores are generally on par with or slightly below the district averages. Additionally, the racial demographics of the schools do not fully represent the broader community, with a significant underrepresentation of minority students.
