Summary:

The 46051 zip code area is home to three schools - Lapel Elementary School, Lapel Senior High School, and Lapel Middle School, all part of the Frankton-Lapel Community Schools district. While the high school stands out as a top performer, the elementary and middle schools in the area appear to be struggling to match its academic achievements.

Lapel Senior High School is the standout school in the 46051 zip code, consistently ranking among the top 25% of high schools in Indiana and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts strong test scores, with 62.07% of 11th graders proficient or better in SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, and 35.34% proficient or better in SAT Math. Additionally, the school has an impressive 88.4% 4-year graduation rate.

In contrast, Lapel Elementary School and Lapel Middle School have 3-star and 2-star ratings respectively from SchoolDigger, and their test scores tend to be below the state averages, particularly in math and science.
