Summary

Model Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Goshen, Indiana, serving 497 students in grades K-4. The school is part of the Goshen Community Schools district, which is ranked 222 out of 380 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Model Elementary School's academic performance, as measured by ILEARN proficiency rates, is generally lower than the state and district averages, the school has seen some improvements in recent years. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 4th-grade ILEARN Math proficiency rate (40.86%) was higher than the district average (48.42%) but still lower than the state average (49.2%). However, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13.3% to 32.8% in recent years, are significantly higher than the state and district averages, indicating a need to address attendance issues. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 52.62% to 67.2%, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When compared to nearby elementary schools within the Goshen Community Schools district, such as Chamberlain Elementary School and Waterford Elementary School, Model Elementary School generally performs lower in academic proficiency rates. However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 15.9 in 2023-2024 is higher than these nearby schools, which range from 11.7 to 16.3. Comparing Model Elementary School to schools outside the Goshen district, such as New Paris Elementary School, reveals significant differences in academic performance, with the out-of-district schools generally having higher proficiency rates in ILEARN assessments.
