Summary:
The East Allen County Schools district in Indiana is home to 7 elementary schools serving grades pre-kindergarten through 6th. These schools vary in size from 464 to 771 students and have a mix of primary (PK-2) and intermediate (3-6) grade configurations.
Two schools stand out in the district: Cedarville Elementary School and Woodlan Elementary School. Cedarville Elementary has the highest performance on ILEARN assessments, with 69.85% proficient or better in ELA and 87.94% in Math, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. Woodlan Elementary is also a high-performing school, with 45.91% proficient or better in ELA and 49.71% in Math. These two schools have the lowest percentages of free/reduced lunch recipients in the district.
However, the other schools in the district struggle to meet state averages, particularly in math and science, suggesting a need to address achievement gaps. The district also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools and wide variations in spending per student and student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to the performance differences. Addressing these factors, as well as the significant socioeconomic diversity across the district, could be key priorities for the East Allen County Schools to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
