Summary:

ZIP code 46214 contains six schools—three elementary, one middle, and two high schools—all within MSD Wayne Township, serving PK–12 students in Indianapolis. Total enrollment is 7,475. All share the district profile: rank 292 of 374, 22nd percentile, 1 star, but individual school ranks range from 9th to 30th percentile in 2025–26. Ben Davis High School is the largest with 3,315 students; Chapel Hill 7th & 8th Grade Center has 1,143; North Wayne Elementary School has 837; Chapelwood Elementary School has 776; Westlake Elementary School has 736; and Achieve Virtual Education Academy has 668.

Chapelwood Elementary School stands out as the clearest bright spot among traditional schools: it ranks 787 of 1,015 (22nd percentile) and has been stable at 786–787 for three years. Its all-grades math proficiency is 26.73%, above the district’s 19.74%, and its 4th grade math proficiency is 55.68%. Chronic absenteeism is 14.7%, lower than the district’s 22.1% and the state’s 16.7%, despite 69.46% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch. By contrast, North Wayne Elementary School is the weakest: 0 stars, 9th percentile, 14.78% ELA and 11.82% math proficiency, and 29.3% chronic absenteeism. Ben Davis High School has a graduation rate of 89.8%, near the state’s 89.7%, but the highest chronic absenteeism at 37.5% and low SAT math (10.53%) and Biology EOC (7.69%).

Achieve Virtual Education Academy is a paradox: highest rank percentile (30th, 2 stars), SAT EBRW 37.5%, and Biology EOC 60%, but the lowest graduation rate (50.8%), highest student-teacher ratio (24.5), lowest per-student spending ($8,036), and a 0.0% chronic absenteeism figure that likely reflects its virtual model. Chapel Hill 7th & 8th Grade Center posts a striking Biology EOC proficiency of 57.76%, yet its all-grades math is 14.77%. Westlake Elementary School has the lowest student-teacher ratio (14.2) and 17.4% chronic absenteeism, but ranks only in the 14th percentile. Overall, most test scores remain well below state averages, and spending does not clearly predict outcomes: Ben Davis High School spends the most ($13,675) yet has very low test scores and high absenteeism, while Achieve Virtual Education Academy spends the least but has the highest rank percentile.
