Summary

Study Elementary School is a PK–5 school at 2414 Brooklyn Ave in Fort Wayne, one of the smaller campuses in the Fort Wayne Community Schools district with 268 students. It sits near the very bottom of all Indiana elementary schools — 996th of 1,015 in 2025–2026, the 2nd percentile, and the only zero-star school among its closest neighbors — and has ranked in the bottom 4% of the state for five straight reported years.

On 2025–2026 ILEARN tests, students scored 8.4% proficient in English language arts, 10.69% in math, 11.36% in science, and 9.09% in fifth-grade social studies — last in every subject among the ten nearby Fort Wayne Community Schools elementary schools, where the district average is roughly 30% in both ELA and math. Weisser Park Elementary School, about 2.25 miles away, reached 37.74% in ELA while spending less per student ($12,811 vs. Study's $14,710) and running larger classes. Indian Village Elementary School, less than a mile away, sits at the 16th percentile — eight times Study's standing — and Fairfield Elementary School, the next-lowest performer in the group, is 9 percentile points ahead.

Study serves a high-need population: 80.22% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, essentially tied with South Wayne Elementary School (80.59%) for the highest in the group. There are real bright spots. Chronic absenteeism fell from 36% in 2021–22 to 20.2% in 2024–25, now matching the district average. Math proficiency rose about 4 points and science nearly 9 points this year, and fifth-grade social studies more than doubled. Third-grade math (14.29%) is the strongest result in the school. Even so, the overall trend still points downward, and parents weighing Study against Bloomingdale Elementary School or Washington Elementary School should know that its higher spending and smaller classes are not translating into proficiency on state tests.
