Summary:

In zip code 46107, there are two middle schools serving students in grades 4-8: South Grove Intermediate School (grades 4-6) and Beech Grove Middle School (grades 7-8). Both schools are part of the Beech Grove City Schools district, which is ranked in the bottom quartile of Indiana districts. Both schools also share a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% and serve a high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, with free/reduced lunch rates around 70%.

Beech Grove Middle School appears to be the stronger performer of the two, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) for its 7th and 8th graders. For example, in the 2023-2024 academic year, 8th graders at Beech Grove Middle School achieved a 47.53% proficiency rate in ELA, significantly higher than South Grove Intermediate School's 6th-grade ELA proficiency of 20.38% in the same year. Beech Grove Middle School also has a higher SchoolDigger rating (2 stars) and a more favorable student-teacher ratio (14.3:1) compared to South Grove Intermediate School (1 star, 16:1). Additionally, Beech Grove Middle School has considerably higher per-student spending ($13,947) than South Grove Intermediate School ($9,888).

While South Grove Intermediate School shows a strength in 4th-grade math, its overall ELA scores across all grades are consistently below the Indiana average. Math performance for its 5th and 6th graders in the 2023-2024 year was particularly low. A significant concern for Beech Grove Middle School is a notable decline in ELA proficiency between the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 academic years, with overall ELA scores dropping from 39.17% to 28.6%. This trend is also reflected in its 8th-grade ELA scores, which decreased from 47.53% to 35.27% over the same period.
