Summary

Jeremiah Gray Elementary School is a public elementary school in Indianapolis, Indiana, serving 683 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Perry Township Schools district, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Jeremiah Gray Elementary School faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, lower test scores compared to district and state averages, and a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The school's per-student spending is relatively high, suggesting a focus on providing additional resources and support. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, and it generally performs worse on key metrics than nearby schools like Homecroft Elementary School and Mary Bryan Elementary School.

The high rates of economic disadvantage and chronic absenteeism at Jeremiah Gray Elementary School may be contributing to the school's lower academic performance. While the school's high per-student spending and the district's 2-star rating suggest opportunities for improvement, addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and support may be crucial for the school to provide a better educational experience for its students.
