Summary

Hamilton Heights Elementary School in Arcadia, IN, serves 889 students in grades PK–4 as part of the Hamilton Heights School Corp, in a part of central Indiana near the growing Westfield and Noblesville communities. In 2025–2026 it ranked 363rd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 64th percentile with 3 stars — while its district ranks 54th of 374 districts (86th percentile, 4 stars). The school's rank has climbed from the 52nd percentile in 2023–2024 to 58th in 2024–2025 and 64th in 2025–2026, though it is still below its earlier peak of the 75th percentile in 2016–2017.

At each reported grade level, the school exceeded Indiana's averages — a genuine strength. Compared with nearby schools, however, it sits near the bottom, second-lowest in ELA, Math, and Science, trailing the nearby median by roughly 6 points in ELA and about 12 points in both Math and Science. Schools such as Carey Ridge Elementary School and Noble Crossing Elementary School in Westfield-Washington Schools and Noblesville Schools often score 10–20 points higher. Math is a relative strength within its own district (52.62% vs. 46.17%), while ELA (47.11% vs. 51.88%) and Science trail the district.

Chronic absenteeism is 8.5%, well below the district's 11.2% and Indiana's 16.7%. About 33.07% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, above the nearby median, and per-student spending is $8,655 — the lowest among nearby schools and roughly 29% below their median. The student-teacher ratio is 16.7. The improvement trend is real: ELA proficiency rose from 37.76% in 2023–2024 to 47.11% in 2025–2026. Tipton Elementary School, in the lower-ranked Tipton Community School Corp, is a useful benchmark — it ranks higher while serving a larger share of students from lower-income families.
