Summary:

Zip code 46347 is home to one elementary school, Kouts Elementary School, which serves students in Kindergarten through 5th grade. This school is part of the East Porter County School Corp district.

Kouts Elementary School has seen a notable decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 98th in the 2020-2021 school year to 354th in 2022-2023. Academically, the school shows mixed results. It performs at or above the district average in 3rd-grade English Language Arts and 3rd and 4th-grade Math for the 2024-2025 school year, and also excels in 4th-grade Science and 5th-grade Social Studies compared to the district in the 2023-2024 school year. However, performance in 5th-grade English Language Arts and Math, as well as overall English Language Arts proficiency, is below the district average.

Further considerations for Kouts Elementary School include a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year, which is a potential concern for academic achievement. The school spends $10,071 per student, which is higher than the district average, yet this increased spending does not appear to consistently translate to higher test scores across all subjects and grades. With 31.66% of students receiving free or reduced lunch, the school serves a significant portion of students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, a factor that can influence educational outcomes. The student-teacher ratio is 14.8, which is favorable and suggests potential for individualized attention.
