Summary:
ZIP code 46060 covers Noblesville, Indiana, and holds 9 schools serving roughly 7,786 students in grades PK through 12 — five elementary schools, one middle school, and three high schools. The area is essentially a one-district town: Noblesville Schools operates six of the nine schools and enrolls 87% of the ZIP's students. Hamilton Southeastern Schools runs just one school here, Deer Creek Elementary, and two small stand-alone districts operate the remaining high school programs.
Three schools stand out. Noblesville High School, with 3,291 students — 42% of the ZIP — graduates 98.5% of students (state: 89.7%) and has ranked at the 95th percentile for three straight years. Deer Creek Elementary is the top-ranked school in the ZIP (92nd percentile, 5 stars) and improving each year, with the lowest chronic absenteeism at 5.1%. Noblesville East Middle School is the most improved, climbing to the 92nd percentile with science proficiency up 6.6 points. At the other end, Options Noblesville and Excel Center - Noblesville report very low proficiency, chronic absenteeism of 63.7% and 88.7%, and low graduation rates — but both serve small, non-traditional populations, so comparing them directly to the comprehensive high school is misleading.
Across the seven comprehensive schools, chronic absenteeism averages around 9%, well below the state's 16.7%. Elementary results are unusually spread out — science proficiency spans a 27-point gap, from Deer Creek's 66.92% to White River Elementary School's 39.13%. North Elementary School has the ZIP's highest per-pupil spending ($14,936) yet the largest ELA decline (down 11 points), showing that spending and poverty rates do not reliably predict outcomes here. A few figures, including Excel Center's SAT scores, are not published and should be treated as unknown.
