Summary:
ZIP code 46818 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, is served by exactly one high school in this data set: Carroll High School, a large public school serving grades 9–12 with an enrollment of 2,623 students, part of Northwest Allen County Schools. Because it is the only high school in the ZIP code, there is no in-area comparison group; the most useful benchmarks are the district, the state, and the school's own prior years.
Carroll stands out well beyond its own ZIP code. It has earned 5 stars in each of the last three school years, ranking 31st out of 415 Indiana high schools in 2025–2026 (93rd percentile), 27th out of 429 in 2024–2025 (94th percentile), and 34th out of 432 in 2023–2024 (92nd percentile) — consistently placing it in roughly the top 6–8% statewide. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate of 96.7% matches the district figure and runs 7.0 percentage points above the state's 89.7%. Test results are strong as well: SAT Reading/Writing was 69.97% proficient in 2025–2026, 18.07 points above the state, and SAT Math was 40.58%, 14.98 points above the state. The district overall is also strong, at 86th percentile with 4 stars, though the school's own ranking profile is higher.
Two areas are worth watching. Chronic absenteeism is 12.8% — better than the state's 16.7% but 5.0 points higher than the district's 7.8%, the one measure where the school trails its immediate district context. Trends are also mixed: SAT Math improved 3.49 points year over year, but SAT Reading/Writing dropped 5.30 points and Biology slipped 3.22 points, from 62.35% to 59.13%. Reading/Writing also remains far ahead of math within the school, a gap of 29.39 percentage points in 2025–2026.
