Summary:

ZIP code 47122 is home to a single elementary school — Georgetown Elementary School, a PK–4 building of 659 students on High Street in Georgetown, Indiana, serving a relatively advantaged but not affluent community within the New Albany-Floyd County Con School district.

Academically, the school ranks 220th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 78th percentile, squarely in the top quartile — and holds 4 stars, matching its district's rating. Math is its clear engine: 67.6% of students were proficient, 17.6 points above the district's 50.05%. English language arts stands at 55.2%, 3.5 points above the district. Science is the exception at 44.44% — about a point below the district and only 0.6 points above the state — and it fell nearly 9 points from the prior year, the largest drop of any subject. Third grade outperforms fourth grade in both reading and math, and fourth-grade reading (53.17%) is the only measure trailing the district. Keep in mind that ILEARN tests only grades 3 and 4, so these results describe roughly a third of the building.

Attendance is the standout: chronic absenteeism of 7.8% is less than half the district's 16.3% and the state's 16.7%. About 24.7% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, the student–teacher ratio is 19:1, and per-student spending is $10,886. One caution for parents: the school's state percentile has slipped from 93rd to 84th to 78th over three years even though its absolute scores dipped only slightly — this is a high-performing school worth watching, not one in decline.
