Summary:

Zip code 46012 is home to two elementary schools: Eastside Elementary School and Tenth Street Elementary School. Both schools are part of the Anderson Community School Corp, which is ranked among the lower-performing districts in Indiana. While neither school stands out as exceptionally high-performing, Eastside Elementary School generally shows stronger academic results compared to Tenth Street Elementary School, particularly in specific grade levels and subjects.

A key concern for both schools is the high rate of chronic absenteeism, with both reporting 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year. This is a significant factor that can impact student academic success. Tenth Street Elementary School serves a higher percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by its higher free/reduced lunch rate. Despite spending more per student than Eastside Elementary School, Tenth Street generally exhibits lower academic proficiency across most subjects and grade levels.

Notable strengths at Eastside Elementary School include its 3rd-grade English Language Arts and Math proficiency rates, which exceed both the district average and, in the case of 3rd-grade Math, the state average for the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, Eastside shows a considerable advantage in 5th-grade Social Studies proficiency compared to Tenth Street. The student-teacher ratios at both schools are similar and generally favorable, suggesting this is not a primary factor in the observed performance differences. Overall, while both schools face district-wide challenges, Eastside Elementary School appears to be the relatively stronger performer.
