Summary:

Zip code 46371 is home to two elementary schools, Rolling Prairie Elementary School and Prairie View Elementary School, both part of the highly-rated New Prairie United School Corp. This district is recognized for its strong performance, ranking 34th out of 380 districts in Indiana and holding a 5-star rating.

Prairie View Elementary School appears to be the stronger performer in zip code 46371. It demonstrates significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to Rolling Prairie Elementary School and the state average. This academic edge is also reflected in its better statewide ranking of 151st out of 1016 schools in the 2022-2023 school year, compared to Rolling Prairie Elementary School's 214th. Both schools received a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the same period.

Interestingly, both schools share an identical chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting a potential district-wide trend. Rolling Prairie Elementary School serves more students and has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a potentially different socioeconomic profile. Despite spending more per student, Rolling Prairie Elementary School has a very similar student-teacher ratio to Prairie View Elementary School, suggesting that increased spending does not directly translate to smaller class sizes in this instance. A notable point for Rolling Prairie Elementary School is a decline in its statewide ranking from 117th in 2021-2022 to 214th in 2022-2023, which may warrant further investigation.
