Summary:

Herron Preparatory Academy is the sole elementary school located in the Herron Preparatory Academy district in Indianapolis, Indiana. This standout school serves students from grades K-5 and has consistently demonstrated strong academic performance, outpacing the state average in several subjects and grade levels.

Herron Preparatory Academy has been ranked among the top 292 out of 1,005 elementary schools in Indiana for the 2024-2025 school year, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic success is likely attributed to its low student-teacher ratio of 6.9 to 1, which allows for more personalized attention and support. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school had impressive proficiency rates, with 48.65% of students scoring proficient or better in ILEARN/English Language Arts and 71.62% in ILEARN/Math, surpassing the state averages.

While the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% in the 2023-2024 school year is an area for potential improvement, the school's relatively high spending of $12,676 per student suggests a commitment to providing the necessary resources and support for student learning. Additionally, the school serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 39.74% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating the need to address potential equity concerns and ensure all students have access to the resources they need to succeed.
