Summary

Frankton Elementary School is a PK–6 school in Frankton, Indiana, serving 803 students as part of Frankton-Lapel Community Schools, and it ranks 619th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 39th percentile with a 2-star rating — while its district ranks 144th of 374 (61st percentile, 3 stars).

Math is Frankton's relative strength: 43.29% of students were proficient in math, close to the district's 44.03% and nearly level with Alexandria Monroe Elementary School (44.70%), though far below Lapel Elementary School (58.33%), the district's other elementary. Fourth-grade math (55.17%) is above the state's 52%. English language arts, science, and social studies are weaker — ELA 29.18% (district 39.41%), science 33.79%, and 5th-grade social studies 30.28% versus 47.20% statewide. Upper grades are the biggest concern: 5th-grade ELA is 23.85% against 42.20% statewide, 6th-grade math is 30.10% versus 40.20%, and 6th-grade science is 26.21% versus 41.20%. Frankton outperforms most schools in Anderson Community School Corp and Elwood Community School Corp, such as Tenth Street Elementary School and Eastside Elementary School, but trails Alexandria Monroe in the upper grades. The school has held a 2-star rating for about a decade, with percentiles mostly between 39 and 49.

Chronic absenteeism was 13.4% in 2024–2025 — better than the state's 16.7% and better than most nearby Anderson and Elwood schools, but slightly worse than the district's 12.7%, and up sharply from about 2% in 2022–23. About 56.16% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch, higher than Lapel Elementary (36%) or Alexandria Monroe (41.51%), but lower than many Anderson schools. Frankton has the largest enrollment and the highest student-teacher ratio (19.4) among nearby schools, and per-pupil spending of $8,383 — more than Lapel ($7,256), which achieves more, and less than Anderson-area schools, which achieve less.
