Summary:
ZIP code 46755 covers Kendallville, Indiana, and its five public schools — three elementary schools serving prekindergarten through grade 5, one middle school for grades 6–8, and one high school for grades 9–12 — all belong to East Noble School Corporation, enrolling about 2,740 students. The district itself ranks 215th of 374 Indiana districts, at the 43rd percentile with 2 stars, but performance inside the ZIP varies far more than that single rating suggests.
Wayne Center Elementary School is the academic standout: it earned 3–4 stars in recent years, reaches 45.14% ELA and 52.08% math proficiency against district marks of 32.71% and 37.4%, and has the ZIP's lowest chronic absenteeism at 5.1%. East Noble High School posts a 95.1% graduation rate, 5.4 points above the state's 89.7%, though it slipped from 4 stars to 3 and saw Biology proficiency fall from 52.91% to 36.54%. South Side Elementary School is the main concern, with 1 star, 21.90% ELA proficiency, and 4th-grade ELA at 18% versus the state's 42.2%. North Side Elementary School sits in the middle with 2 stars, but its 5th-grade math result of 12% is roughly 30 points below the state. East Noble Middle School is steady at 2 stars, with 6th-grade math at 47.14% versus the state's 40.2% a bright spot.
Spending and class size do not track neatly with results here: Wayne Center has both the highest per-student spending ($12,714) and highest student-teacher ratio (15.7) while performing best among elementaries, and South Side has the lowest of both yet the weakest ELA. Parents should weigh each school individually rather than judge the ZIP by the district average.
