Summary:
Matchbook Learning is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in Indianapolis, Indiana, with a total enrollment of 642 students. Based on the available data, this school does not appear to be a standout performer, consistently ranking in the bottom 1-2% of Indiana elementary schools over the past three years and exhibiting significant academic deficiencies across all grade levels and subject areas.
Matchbook Learning has a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which is quite high. The school's ILEARN test scores are dramatically lower than the state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 4.05% to 23.29% in English Language Arts, 1.2% to 9.59% in Math, 2.44% to 4.11% in Science, and 7.59% in Social Studies, compared to state averages of 37.9% to 42.7%, 34.5% to 51.5%, 42.4% to 43.2%, and 38.5%, respectively. Additionally, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 96.73% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
The data suggests that Matchbook Learning is a struggling school that is not meeting the academic needs of its students. Significant improvements would be needed across multiple areas, including instructional quality, student engagement, and resource allocation, to better serve the school's high-needs population and improve student outcomes.
