Summary

Newby Memorial Elementary School is a public elementary school in Mooresville, Indiana, serving 282 students in grades PK-6. It is part of the Mooresville Consolidated School Corporation district, which is ranked 112 out of 380 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

While Newby Memorial has a higher per-student spending of $12,412 compared to the district and state averages, the school faces several challenges. It has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.7% to 19.3%, and lower test scores in ILEARN/English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies than the district and state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, Newby Memorial's proficiency rates in ELA (39.13%) and Math (47.2%) were below the district (43.31% and 49.36%) and state (40.3% and 51.5%) averages. Additionally, Newby Memorial has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.75% to 62.41% in recent years, compared to other schools in the district.

When comparing Newby Memorial to nearby elementary schools, such as North Madison Elementary and Neil Armstrong Elementary, both within the Mooresville Consolidated School Corporation district, Newby Memorial generally performs below the district averages in test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates. Expanding the comparison to schools outside the Mooresville district, such as Brentwood Elementary and Guilford Elementary in the Plainfield Community School Corporation district, Newby Memorial's performance is even more concerning, as these schools significantly outperform Newby Memorial in test scores despite having similar student demographics.
