Summary:

Zip code 46030 in Arcadia, Indiana contains exactly one high school: Hamilton Heights High School, a public school serving grades 9–12 with 710 students as part of Hamilton Heights School Corp.

Hamilton Heights High School is a solidly above-average Indiana high school with several genuine strengths. Its graduation rate is 95.2%, matching its district and running 5.5 percentage points above the state's 89.7%. Literacy is a clear bright spot: SAT Evidence-based Reading and Writing proficiency was 60.49% in 2025–2026 against 51.9% statewide, and 66.86% in 2024–2025 against 54.5% statewide. Biology ILEARN End-of-Course proficiency was 64.92% in 2024–2025 versus the state's 45.6%, a roughly 19-point advantage. The district ranks 54th of 374 Indiana districts (86th percentile, 4 stars), and the school ranked 74th of 415 high schools in 2025–2026 (82nd percentile, 4 stars). Chronic absenteeism is 14.6%, better than the state's 16.7% but higher than the district's 11.2%. With 28.31% of students on free/reduced lunch, per-student spending of $11,753, and a 14.7 student-teacher ratio, the resource and demographic profile is moderate.

The main watch items are trends rather than levels. The school slipped from 41st of 429 (90th percentile, 5 stars) in 2024–2025 to 82nd percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026. All three reported test areas declined year over year: Biology fell 4.73 points, SAT EBRW 6.37 points, and SAT Math 6.16 points. Math is the clearest concern — the school went from 4.83 points above the state in 2024–2025 (30.23% vs. 25.4%) to 1.53 points below it in 2025–2026 (24.07% vs. 25.6%), while the state rate barely moved.
