Summary

Sycamore Elementary School is a K–5 school in Avon, Indiana, serving 512 students as part of Avon Community School Corp, a district ranked 24th of 374 statewide (94th percentile, 5 stars). In 2025–2026, Sycamore ranked 160th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 84th percentile with 4 stars — an improvement over 2023–2024's 75th percentile but slightly below 2024–2025's 89th percentile.

Attendance is the school's standout strength: chronic absenteeism was just 4.2% in 2024–2025, far below the district's 7.9% and the state's 16.7%, and lower than every nearby school except Hickory Elementary School (3.2%). That is especially notable given that 55.66% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. In 2025–2026, proficiency beat the state in every tested grade and subject, and beat the district in ELA at all three grades (62.33% all-grades vs. 58.46% district). Math (64.88%) is above the district overall, led by a strong 4th grade (73.03%), though 3rd- and 5th-grade math fall below district averages. Science (52.81%) is essentially at the district average.

Among Avon schools, Sycamore sits mid-pack: Cedar Elementary School and Maple Elementary School rank higher, and River Birch Elementary School has stronger math, while Sycamore leads Pine Tree Elementary School in rank and ELA. Its clearest weakness is 5th-grade social studies at 50% — above the state's 47.2% but below the district's 58.07% and the lowest among all nearby schools. Compared with schools in Brownsburg Community School Corp, Sycamore serves more low-income students and spends far more per pupil ($11,934 vs. roughly $6,500–$7,200), yet Delaware Trail Elementary School and White Lick Elementary School post higher ELA and math scores.
