Best Public Schools in Zip Code 47041

Summary:

The zip code 47041 contains a single public elementary school, Sunman Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 and has a total enrollment of 339 students. The school's student population is predominantly White (95.28%), with a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (35.69%).

Academically, Sunman Elementary School's performance is mixed compared to state and district averages. While the school's 4th-grade Math proficiency rates are on par with the district and state, its English Language Arts proficiency rates are below average across all grade levels. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 11.2% is also higher than the desired target. Sunman Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 390 out of 1,016 Indiana elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 525 out of 1,020 in 2021-2022, and its SchoolDigger rating has varied from 2 to 3 stars out of 5.

The school's relatively high per-student spending of $14,039 and low student-teacher ratio of 14:1 suggest that resources are being allocated to support the educational needs of students. However, the academic performance data indicates that these resources may not be fully translating into improved student outcomes, particularly in the area of English Language Arts. The lack of diversity in the student population may also impact the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience and prepare students for an increasingly diverse world.
