Summary:
The 46013 zip code area has only one elementary school, Erskine Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-5. Erskine Elementary is part of the Anderson Community School Corporation, a district that is ranked 328 out of 381 school districts in Indiana and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Erskine Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Indiana elementary schools over the past 3 school years, with a ranking of 887 out of 1,010 schools in 2023-2024. The school's academic performance is significantly below state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas tested, with only 15.46% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 18% for the Anderson Community School Corporation and the state average. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.6% and a high percentage of students (82.02%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, its academic performance remains poor, suggesting that the school may be facing challenges in effectively allocating its resources and implementing strategies to support student learning. Additionally, the lack of comparison schools in the 46013 zip code area may be a barrier to improvement, as there are no direct benchmarks or best practices to learn from within the same geographic region.
