Summary:
The 47451 zip code in Indiana is home to a single public elementary school, Dollens Elementary, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 237 students. While the school has a predominantly white student population (94.09%), its academic performance, as measured by ILEARN test scores, is generally below the North Lawrence Community Schools district and the state of Indiana averages across various grade levels and subject areas.
Dollens Elementary's ILEARN proficiency rates range from 27.03% to 42.11% in English Language Arts and 30.56% to 47.06% in Math, compared to the district averages of 27.87% to 43.87% in ELA and 34.78% to 46.22% in Math. The school's performance in Social Studies is slightly better, with 5th-grade students scoring 41.18% proficient or better, compared to the district's 50.46% and the state's 38.1%. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.7%, which is significantly higher than the state's average.
While the school's per-student spending is in line with the district average, and its student-teacher ratio of 10.2 indicates relatively small class sizes, the combination of low academic performance and high chronic absenteeism suggests that the resources may not be effectively utilized to support student learning and engagement. The lack of demographic diversity in the school's student population may also limit the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience and prepare students for an increasingly diverse world.
