Schools in Zip Code 47110

ZIP code 47110 in Central, Indiana, is home to exactly one school — Heth-Washington Elementary School, a PK–6 building with 162 students in South Harrison Com Schools.

Heth-Washington is the only school in this ZIP, so it defines the local picture. Its three-year trend is positive: it ranked 554th of 1011 schools (45th percentile, 2 stars) in 2023–2024 and improved to 425th of 1015 (58th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026 — above the state median, though still behind its own district's 74th percentile, 4-star profile. Science is the clear bright spot. All-grade science proficiency was 61.9%, well above the district's 46.94%, and rose about 21 points year over year while district science slipped. Sixth grade stands out across the board: ELA 63.64%, math 59.09%, and science 72.73%, all above district and state. Fourth grade ELA (60%) and fifth grade social studies (63.64%) were also strong.

The challenges are concentrated in math and the early grades. All-grade math was 35.63% against the district's 45.05% and declined year over year, while all-grade ELA was 41.38%, about 10 points below the district. Third grade results were strikingly low — ELA at 8.7% and math at 21.74%, far below district and state — so performance varies sharply by grade level. With only 162 students, grade-level rates rest on small cohorts, and a few students can move a percentage by many points. Context is favorable in other ways: chronic absenteeism was 14.9%, lower than the district's 18.9% and the state's 16.7%; the free/reduced lunch rate was 78.4%; per-student spending was $13,593; and the student-teacher ratio was 16.2.
