Summary:
ZIP code 46797 has just one elementary school: Woodlan Elementary School, a K–6 school at 17117 Woodburn Road in Woodburn, Indiana, serving 572 students as part of East Allen County Schools. Because it is the only elementary school in the area, there are no local peers to compare it with, so the useful benchmarks are the district and the state.
Math is the school's clearest strength. In 2025–2026, all-grade math proficiency was 51.35%, which is 16.71 percentage points above the district, and Woodlan beat the district in every subject and grade reported that year. Third-grade math (58.82%) and fourth-grade math (58.54%) were especially strong, and grades 3, 4, and 6 also exceeded state math rates. English language arts is the main area to watch: all-grade ELA was 36.04%, only 0.42 points above the district, and grades 4, 5, and 6 fell below state ELA rates, with fifth grade 8.87 points behind and sixth grade 8.95 points behind. Science (38.04%) and social studies (43.21%) were above the district but below the state in the grades reported. Math outperformed ELA at every tested grade, which points to a literacy gap rather than broad academic weakness.
The school's rank has softened, moving from 4 stars and the 72nd percentile in 2023–2024 to 3 stars and the 55th percentile in 2025–2026, still above the district's 2-star, 45th-percentile profile. Over the past year math and science improved while ELA dropped sharply from 45.91% to 36.04%. Chronic absenteeism was 17.0%, better than the district's 18.7% but slightly above the state's 16.7%. With 45.45% free/reduced lunch, a 16.9 student-teacher ratio, and $10,501 per-student spending, Woodlan serves a community with real economic need — helpful context when reading these results.
