Summary

Oaklawn Elementary School is a K–4 school in Monticello, Indiana, serving 323 students as part of Twin Lakes School Corp, which itself ranks 224th of 374 Indiana districts. In 2025–26, Oaklawn ranked 605th of 1,015 elementary schools statewide (40th percentile, 2 stars), down from earlier peaks of 64th percentile and 3 stars in 2018–19 and 56th percentile and 3 stars in 2020–21; the school has mostly sat in the 40s–50s percentile range since.

Oaklawn's standout strength is math. All-grade math proficiency is 44.07%, well above the Twin Lakes district average of 34.36%, and it has exceeded the district every year since 2022–23. Science is also relatively strong at 41.67% versus the district's 37.81%. Within the district, Oaklawn outperforms Meadowlawn Elementary School in ELA (+1.3 points), math (+8.11 points), and science (+3.78 points), and offers a lower student-teacher ratio (15.2 vs. 17.6) and higher per-student spending ($12,029 vs. $10,372). It also beats Carroll Elementary School, Delphi Community Elementary School, and North White Elementary School in math.

English Language Arts is the persistent weak spot: 32.2% proficiency sits below the district's 34.76% and below state grade-level benchmarks, with 4th-grade ELA (31.67%) a notable pressure point. Chronic absenteeism is 13.9% — better than the state (16.7%) and district (16.0%) and much improved from 22.2% in 2021–22, but higher than most nearby schools, including Meadowlawn (9.0%) and Burnett Creek Elementary School (7.6%). Oaklawn's free/reduced-lunch rate is 64.09%, higher than most peers, and per-student spending rose 20.2% from $10,005 in 2022–23 to $12,029 in 2023–24 without a corresponding rank jump. High-performing neighbors like Burnett Creek and Hershey Elementary School score far higher but serve much lower-poverty populations, so the comparison isn't like-for-like.
