Summary

Fox Hill Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Indianapolis, Indiana, serving 613 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the MSD Washington Township school district, which is ranked 195 out of 380 districts in Indiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fox Hill Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the district average, ranging from 16.0% to 19.9% over the past few years. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. Additionally, Fox Hill has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 40.42% to 65.91% over the past few years, indicating a higher proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

When comparing Fox Hill to the nearby Greenbriar Elementary, Willow Lake Elementary, and Crooked Creek Elementary schools within the same MSD Washington Township district, it becomes evident that Fox Hill's academic performance is generally lower across all subject areas and grade levels. This suggests that the challenges faced by Fox Hill may be systemic within the district. Despite the higher per-student spending at Fox Hill, ranging from $12,538 to $13,608 per student, the academic performance does not seem to be commensurate with the higher funding, raising questions about the efficient allocation and utilization of resources within the school and the district.
