Summary:

Zip code 46148 is home to one public elementary school, Knightstown Elementary School, which serves students from Pre-Kindergarten through 3rd grade. This school is part of the C A Beard Memorial School Corp.

Knightstown Elementary School shows a notable improvement in test scores for the 2024-2025 school year, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) for all grades at 50% and Math for all grades at 60%. These figures significantly surpass the district's average proficiency rates of 33.91% for ELA and 40.91% for Math. In 3rd grade, the school's proficiency in both ELA and Math for the 2024-2025 school year meets or exceeds the district average and is generally above the state average for ELA. The school's performance in 3rd-grade Math, at 60%, also aligns with the district average and is higher than the state average. Historically, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, with a dip in the 2012-2013 school year, but it has shown some recovery since then.

Several other factors are important for parents to consider. The school has a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year, which is a concern. Additionally, 33.42% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant portion of the student body comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. On the positive side, the school invests $9,918 per student and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.8, suggesting a potentially supportive learning environment. Overall, Knightstown Elementary School appears to be a strong performer within its district, especially in recent academic assessments, though the chronic absenteeism rate warrants attention.
