Summary

Mount Healthy Elementary School is a PK–6 school in Columbus, Indiana, serving 365 students as part of Bartholomew Con School Corp, a district that ranks near the middle of Indiana schools. The school's own results, however, sit well below that district profile.

Mount Healthy ranks 803 of 1,015 Indiana schools in 2025–2026 — the 21st percentile, with 1 star. That is a long slide: in 2015–2016 it was a 4-star school at the 76th percentile. In 2025–2026, 21.74% of students were proficient in English language arts, 33.15% in math, and 17.89% in science, versus district rates of 41.76%, 42.98%, and 38.17%. Nearby schools with similar student populations do much better: CSA Lincoln Campus posts 74.40% ELA, Southside Elementary School 59.50%, and Parkside Elementary School 48.38% — even though Parkside's poverty rate, per-student spending, and class size closely match Mount Healthy's. Science proficiency is the lowest in this local comparison. The biggest gaps are in grades 4–6 reading, grades 5–6 math, and 5th grade social studies.

Two bright spots stand out. Chronic absenteeism is 9.4%, below the district's 15.9% and the state's 16.7% and better than most nearby schools — so low achievement is not mainly an attendance problem. Third grade math is 58.33%, above district and state averages. Math overall has improved, while ELA has slipped and science swung from 40.37% to 17.89% in one year. Parents may want to ask about upper-elementary reading and math intervention, science and social studies support, and how the school plans to carry its 3rd grade math success into later grades.
