Families considering it should know that Anna Brochhausen School 88 - a STEM School has ranked in the bottom 10% of Indiana schools for years — 943rd of 1,015 in 2025–2026 (7th percentile, no stars), up only slightly from 3rd percentile the year before and 2nd percentile in 2020–2021. The last time it earned a state star was 2015–2016.

Test scores tell the main story. In 2025–2026, 6.35% of students passed ELA, versus 21.09% across the district; third-grade ELA was just 1.72%, compared with a state figure of 40.8%. Math (19.84%) and science (18.92%) sit closer to district averages but far below state grade-level benchmarks.

Chronic absenteeism also fell sharply, from 44.2% to 31.4%, roughly in line with the district (32.2%) though still about double the state rate (16.7%).

Anna spends $18,653 per student, more than Pleasant Run Elementary School ($12,700) and Paramount Brookside ($14,247), yet those schools post higher proficiency, suggesting other factors are at play. Its STEM focus is not yet visible in science results. Nearby George W. Julian School 57 (66th percentile) and Paramount Brookside (77th percentile) show much stronger outcomes are possible in the same area, though their programs and student populations may differ.
