Summary:

The 46987 zip code area has only one school, Sweetser Elementary School, which serves grades 3-4 and is part of the Oak Hill United School Corp. While the district is ranked 107 out of 380 in Indiana and has a 4-star rating, Sweetser Elementary's performance has been mixed compared to state and district averages.

Sweetser Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 358 out of 1,016 Indiana elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 530 out of 1,016 in 2022-2023, with a 2-star rating. The school's proficiency rates in ILEARN/English Language Arts and ILEARN/Math have also been lower than the Oak Hill United School Corporation's averages and the state averages. Additionally, Sweetser Elementary has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%.

Despite being part of a high-performing school district, Sweetser Elementary appears to be underperforming compared to its peers. Factors such as the school's declining statewide ranking, lower test scores, high chronic absenteeism rate, and higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students (45.24% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch) may be contributing to its academic challenges. Overall, the data suggests that Sweetser Elementary School is not a standout school in the 46987 zip code area.
