Summary:

In zip code 46701, there is one elementary school, Central Noble Elementary School, serving grades 3-5. This school is part of the Central Noble Com School Corp district.

Central Noble Elementary School has an enrollment of 229 students and a student-teacher ratio of 12.9, which is favorable for individualized attention. The school's spending per student is $12,128. In terms of academic performance, the school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency for all grades was 30.43% in the 2024-2025 school year, which is slightly above the district average but significantly below the Indiana average. While there was a slight improvement in ELA proficiency from the previous year, it remains an area for focus. Math proficiency was 36.76% for all grades in 2024-2025, lower than the district average. Notably, fifth-grade math proficiency was strong in the 2023-2024 school year, exceeding the state average, but saw a decline in 2024-2025. Science proficiency for 4th grade was 34.12% in 2024-2025, below the state average, and 5th-grade Social Studies proficiency was 27.91%, also below the state average.

A significant concern for Central Noble Elementary School is its chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% in the 2023-2024 school year, which can negatively impact academic outcomes. The school serves a student population where 38.43% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a notable percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The school is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger and ranked 575 out of 1016 Indiana elementary schools for the 2022-2023 school year, suggesting that the school and its district are not consistently performing at the highest levels. Addressing the chronic absenteeism and improving proficiency in ELA, Science, and Math, particularly the recent decline in fifth-grade math, are key areas for improvement.
