Timothy L Johnson Academy

Summary:

Timothy L Johnson Academy is the sole elementary public charter school located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. As the only school in this data set, it serves as the primary educational institution for the local community. However, the school is currently facing significant challenges, with declining performance and rankings over the past three years.

Timothy L Johnson Academy is ranked 890 out of 1,005 Indiana elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic proficiency rates are alarmingly low, with only 16.16% of students proficient or better in ELA and 16.67% proficient or better in Math, compared to state averages of around 40% and 50%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which likely contributes to the academic challenges.

Despite the school's struggles, it is spending a relatively high amount per student ($13,073) and maintaining a student-teacher ratio that is on the higher end for an elementary school. This suggests that additional resources and support may be needed to address the school's operational and academic challenges.
