ZIP code 46013 contains three schools — one elementary school and two high schools, with no middle schools in the area — serving roughly 2,550 students in grades PK–12. Anderson High School dominates with 1,768 students, compared with 461 at Erskine Elementary School and 321 at Excel Center - Anderson. Anderson High and Erskine belong to Anderson Community School Corp, which ranks 343 of 374 districts (8th percentile, 0 stars); Excel Center is its own district and has no district rank in this file.
Erskine is the relative bright spot in science and attendance: 35.94% proficiency in all-grade science versus the district's 21.36%, and 24.9% chronic absenteeism versus the district's 30.9% and Anderson High's 38.0%. It also has the highest per-student spending ($16,457) and smallest student-teacher ratio (11.9), yet all-grade ELA is 14.05%, below the district's 17.05%, and 5th-grade ELA and math both sit at 5.08%. Anderson High graduates 81.6% versus the state's 89.7%, with SAT ERW at 28.88% versus 51.9% statewide and SAT Math at 10.96% versus 25.6% — nearly double its prior 5.64%, but still far below state. Excel Center's profile is extreme: 99.0% chronic absenteeism, 18.8% graduation, $3,411 spending, and a 32.1 student-teacher ratio. Its 2025-26 SAT school and district values are absent and should be treated as unknown, not zero.
Across the ZIP, chronic absenteeism exceeds the state's 16.7% at every school, and graduation outcomes diverge sharply between the two high schools. Spending and class size do not line up simply with results, suggesting differing student needs and school models. Families should also note there is no middle school in 46013.
