Summary:

Zip code 46809 is home to one middle school, Kekionga Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. This public school is part of the Fort Wayne Community Schools district.

Kekionga Middle School faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science consistently falling below both the district and state averages. For instance, in the 2024-2025 academic year, only 14.63% of students at Kekionga Middle School were proficient in English Language Arts, a stark contrast to the district's average. Math proficiency is particularly concerning, with an overall rate of 6.96% in the 2023-2024 academic year and an exceptionally low 0.62% for 8th graders in the same subject. Math scores also show a downward trend for 7th and 8th graders between the two academic years analyzed.

The school serves a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 74.18% qualifying for free or reduced lunch in the 2023-2024 academic year. This is coupled with a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the same period, which can negatively impact student learning. Despite these challenges, Kekionga Middle School has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.1 and spends $11,629 per student, which is above the typical district spending. However, these resources have not yet translated into improved academic performance, and the school is ranked low statewide, reflecting broader challenges within the Fort Wayne Community Schools district.
