Summary:
ZIP code 46819 has just one public middle school: Miami Middle School, a grades 6–8 campus at 8100 Amherst Dr in Fort Wayne serving 496 students as part of Fort Wayne Community Schools. Because it is the only middle school in this ZIP code, families here have no other public middle-school option in the data, so the most useful comparisons are the school against its own past results, its district, and the state of Indiana.
The academic picture is challenging. In 2025–2026, Miami Middle ranked 425th of 486 ranked Indiana middle schools — the 13th percentile, with 1 star. The year before it ranked 433rd of 480, the 10th percentile, with 0 stars, and in 2023–2024 it was 427th of 491, also the 13th percentile with 1 star. Its district, Fort Wayne Community Schools, ranks 274th of 374 districts (27th percentile, 1 star), so the school sits below an already below-average district. All-grade proficiency in 2025–2026 was 16.59% in English Language Arts, 14% in Math, and 12.42% in Science, against district rates of about 30% in each subject. Attendance is also a concern: 27.3% of students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, compared with 20.2% in the district and 16.7% statewide. About 72.98% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending was $12,660, and the student-teacher ratio was 12.7.
There are some bright spots. All-grade Math rose from 8% to 14% — a 6 percentage-point gain, the largest improvement in the data — though still far below the district's 29.43%. Eighth grade ELA, at 19.74%, is the school's strongest grade-level result, while 7th grade ELA, at 10.79%, is the weakest. Science slipped from 13.43% to 12.42%. In short, this is a high-need school with low proficiency and high absenteeism, showing modest improvement in Math and a few stronger grade-level results.
