Summary

New Augusta Public Academy - North is a grades 6–8 middle school in Indianapolis, Indiana, serving 751 students on Rodebaugh Rd. as part of MSD Pike Township. It ranks 253rd of 486 Indiana middle schools (48th percentile, 2 stars), up from 353rd of 489 in 2022–23 — a bright spot in a district ranked 281st of 374 statewide.

Within Pike Township, New Augusta is the strongest middle school by a wide margin. It leads Lincoln Middle School by 23.06 points in ELA, 15.72 in Math, and 25.93 in Science, and Guion Creek Middle School by 16.12, 13.39, and 19.30 points respectively. Attendance is a genuine strength: chronic absenteeism is 12.2%, down from 26.4% in 2020–21 and below both the district (19.5%) and state (16.7%) averages. Among nearby schools, only Creekside Middle School (3.7%) and Speedway Junior High School (5.1%) report lower rates.

Academically, results are mixed. New Augusta beats district averages in ELA (39.87), Math (25.59), and Science (35.36), but trails state benchmarks in nearly every grade and subject — 8th grade ELA (45.39 vs. 44.0) is the sole exception. Math is the clearest weakness, especially in 7th grade (22.77% vs. state 35.9%). Among nearby schools it ranks 4th of 11 overall, behind Creekside, Speedway, and Northview Middle School. Northview serves a similar share of low-income students (48.97% vs. 50.47% free/reduced lunch) yet posts higher scores, while Westlane Middle School is close in Math and Science. The bottom line: solid, improving, and the best option in its district, but still working to reach state levels.

Open Quote This is the Worst School I have Ever been to and I would not Recommend this school at all! so if you live in pike township, the schools are not just how they use to be anymore. and In the hallways kids being playing around and fights going on teachers are overwhelmed, now the good teachers who worked there moved to better schools in different school districts. and really this school shouldn't be labeled as an Academy. so don't recommend This School or Lincoln or any school in pike that is not the school for your child.
