Summary:
ZIP code 46030 contains a single elementary school: Hamilton Heights Elementary School, serving grades PK–4 with 889 students at 25350 State Road 19 in Arcadia. It belongs to the Hamilton Heights School Corp, a district ranked 54th of 374 in Indiana, at the 86th percentile with 4 stars. Because this is the only elementary school in the area, families have no in-ZIP alternative, so the most useful benchmarks are the district and the state.
The school's clearest strength is attendance. In 2024–2025, chronic absenteeism was 8.5%, compared with 11.2% for the district and 16.7% for the state — fewer students here miss school regularly than is typical locally or statewide. Math is another relative bright spot: all-grades Math proficiency was 52.62% versus 46.17% in the district, and both third and fourth grade Math results were above state levels. On grade-level ILEARN results, the school topped the state in every reported subject, including ELA (46.78% in 3rd grade and 47.4% in 4th grade), Math (52.63% and 52.6%) and 4th-grade Science (48.44%). Its state rank has also climbed steadily, from the 52nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 64th in 2025–2026.
Two areas lag behind the district. All-grades ELA proficiency was 47.11% at the school versus 51.88% district-wide, and all-grades Science was 48.44% versus 51.19%. Science also slipped slightly year over year, from 49.37% to 48.44%, while ELA and Math both improved. The school holds a 3-star, 64th-percentile rating, below the district's 4-star, 86th-percentile profile. For context, 33.07% of students received free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025, per-student spending was $8,655 in 2023–2024, and the student-teacher ratio was 16.7. Overall, this is a school with improving rankings, strong math, above-state grade-level scores and notably low absenteeism, with ELA and science as areas to watch.
