Summary

Daleville Elementary School is a K–6 public school in Daleville, Indiana — a small town in Delaware County, near Anderson — serving 553 students as part of Daleville Community Schools. The school itself ranked in the 44th percentile (2 stars) in 2025–26, while the district sits in the 71st percentile (4 stars), a gap that suggests the district's higher rating may come from other grade levels or schools rather than the elementary.

Math is clearly Daleville's strength. All-grade math proficiency was 51.53%, above the district's 45.83% and higher than every Anderson-area elementary in this comparison. Third-grade math stands out at 80.95%, far above the state's 51.9%, and 6th-grade math (49.32%) also beats the state's 40.2%. English Language Arts is the opposite story: 27.91% all-grade, below the district's 33.96% and below Cowan Elementary School, Shenandoah Elementary School, and Yorktown Elementary School. The largest gaps are in 4th-grade ELA (22.09% vs. the state's 42.2%) and 6th-grade ELA (20.55% vs. 41.3%). Science results are mixed at 36.48%, and 5th-grade Social Studies (34.94% vs. the state's 47.2%) has trailed the state for several years.

Chronic absenteeism was 9.8% in 2024–25 — well below the state's 16.7% and far below the Anderson schools, though above the district's 9.1% and up from 7.5% the year before. About 58.41% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $8,911, and the student-teacher ratio is 18.1 — higher than every nearby school except Shenandoah's 18.6. Daleville gets comparatively strong math results despite spending less than most neighbors. Compared with similar-performing higher-ranked schools like Shenandoah and Cowan, the gap is mostly in reading and science, making ELA intervention in the intermediate grades a sensible priority.
