Summary:
The 46784 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Rome City Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the East Noble School Corporation district. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, it is performing significantly below the district and state averages in academic proficiency across all subject areas and grade levels, with a 1-star rating from School Digger.
The school's student population is predominantly White (94.82%), with small percentages of African American (1.04%) and Hispanic (4.15%) students. Additionally, a high percentage (68.91%) of students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low socioeconomic status of the student population. This may be a contributing factor to the school's academic underperformance, which is also reflected in its high chronic absenteeism rate of 7.2%.
Despite the school's higher-than-average spending per student of $11,850, the data suggests that these resources are not being effectively utilized to improve educational outcomes. The school's low academic proficiency rates, ranging from 7.69% in 5th grade Social Studies to 36.36% in 4th grade Math, are well below the district and state averages, highlighting the need for significant improvements in the school's educational programs and support systems to provide a better learning experience for its students.
