Summary:
ZIP code 46151 covers Martinsville, Indiana, where nine public schools serve about 3,965 students across grades PK–12: six elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school. Eight of the nine schools — roughly 90% of enrollment — belong to MSD Martinsville Schools, rated 2 stars. The exception is Waverly Elementary School, part of the higher-rated Mooresville Con School Corp. Grade configurations are inconsistent — some elementaries end at 4th grade, others at 6th — so 6th grade is taught in three different buildings.
Green Township Elementary School is the clearest standout, posting the highest elementary scores in the ZIP on every core subject (ELA 55.32, Math 65.96, Science 48.28) and beating the state at every grade level tested, with 4 stars in each of the last three years. Waverly has the best math in the ZIP (62.26) and by far the lowest chronic absenteeism at 6.9%, well below the state's 16.7%. Centerton Elementary School is the wild card — it fell from the 99th percentile two years ago to the 58th this year, with ELA dropping from 60 to 41.18 and science from 88 to 34.38 — but with only 126 students, a handful of test-takers can swing those numbers enormously.
At the other end, South Elementary School of Communications and Poston Road Elementary School have each earned 1 star recently and sit at or below the district average in every subject; Poston Road has the ZIP's highest poverty indicator (70.46% free/reduced lunch). At Martinsville High School, the graduation rate of 92.2% beats the state's 89.7%, but chronic absenteeism is 27.8%, the highest in the ZIP, and 11th-grade SAT math (20.33) trails the state badly. Notably, neither per-pupil spending nor class size predicts results here.
