Summary

Newby Memorial Elementary School is a PK–6 school serving 264 students in Mooresville, Indiana, part of the Mooresville Con School Corp, a 4-star district that ranks 104th of 374 Indiana districts. For 2025–2026, Newby ranks 383rd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools, placing it at the 62nd percentile with 3 stars. That is up from around the 50th–52nd percentile in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023, though the climb has not been steady: the school reached the 67th percentile in 2023–2024, dipped to 57th in 2024–2025, then recovered to 62nd.

Overall proficiency rates are 45.7% in ELA, 48.34% in Math, and 42.11% in Science. Within its own district, Newby is the smallest of the four elementary schools and has the highest free/reduced lunch rate (57.2%) and the highest chronic absenteeism (17.9%) of its same-district peers, but also the lowest student-teacher ratio (15.6) and the highest per-student spending ($12,412). Its Math proficiency is the lowest among same-district peers, trailing North Madison Elementary School (60.87%), Northwood Elementary School (60.89%), and Neil Armstrong Elementary School (52.17%).

Newby's clearest strengths are in the upper grades: 5th-grade ELA (55.81%), 6th-grade ELA (51.22%), and 6th-grade Science (43.9%) all beat district and state averages. Fourth grade is the weak spot, with results below district and state in ELA, Math, and Science. Attendance is the biggest challenge — 17.9% chronic absenteeism is above the district (13.3%) and state (16.7%) and higher than every nearby school. Compared with neighbors, Newby outperforms Monrovia Elementary School and West Newton Elementary School in all three subjects and is generally ahead of Brooklyn STEM Academy in ELA and Math, but trails the Plainfield schools — Brentwood Elementary School, Van Buren Elementary School, Clarks Creek Elementary, and Guilford Elementary.
