Summary
Willow Elementary School is a K–5 school in Avon, Indiana, part of Avon Community School Corp, with enrollment not reliably reported in this dataset. It is a 4-star school ranked 293rd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools for 2025–2026—71st percentile statewide—but every nearby school ranks higher, from Cedar Elementary School (68th) and Maple Elementary School (75th) to Hickory Elementary School (192nd) and Pine Tree Elementary School (206th). The local bar is high: Avon Community School Corp ranks 24th of 374 Indiana districts.
The school’s clearest strength is math, especially in grades 3 and 4. All-grade math is 64.26%, above the district 62.62%, and 3rd math (73.4%) and 4th math (69.23%) are above both district and state. But 5th math is 49.46%, the lowest among nearby schools and 10.36 points below the district. ELA is the biggest broad weakness: all-grade ELA is 50.17%, the lowest among nearby schools and below district 58.46%. 5th ELA is 45.16%, also the lowest among nearby schools. Science is 41.35%—the lowest locally and below district 52.77%—and 4th science is 41.35%, below state 43.8%. 5th social studies is 39.78%, below district 58.07%, below state 47.2%, and the lowest among nearby schools.
Fifth grade is the most consistent pressure point: ELA, math, and social studies are all below district, with ELA and math lowest among nearby schools and social studies lowest. Cedar Elementary School and Maple Elementary School outperform Willow Elementary School in ELA, science, and social studies, while Hickory Elementary School and Pine Tree Elementary School are closer overall but still ahead in those subjects. Schools in Plainfield Community School Corp and Brownsburg Community School Corp outperform Willow Elementary School in those areas. Data gaps limit the picture: enrollment data is unreliable, and free/reduced lunch, student-teacher ratio, spending, and chronic absenteeism are not available for the school, so it is hard to know whether lower outcomes reflect demographic, resource, or instructional factors. There is also only one year of rank history, so no trend can be assessed. Bottom line: protect early math gains while targeting 5th grade literacy and math, 4th grade science, and 5th grade social studies.
