Summary:

The 46322 zip code area in Highland, Indiana is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the School Town of Highland district. While the district is ranked 116 out of 380 in Indiana and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, the schools within the district show varying levels of performance.

Among the standout schools is Allen J Warren Elementary School, which has the highest overall ILEARN proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math across all grades compared to the other elementary schools. Additionally, Highland High School boasts the highest SAT proficiency rates in Evidence-based Reading and Writing, as well as a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 88.4%.

However, the district as a whole faces some challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which are higher than the state average. Additionally, the free/reduced lunch rates range from 34.4% at Southridge Elementary to 51.94% at Allen J Warren Elementary, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. These factors, along with the inconsistent performance across schools, suggest a need for more targeted interventions and support services to address the unique challenges faced by the community.
