Summary:

ZIP code 47304 in Muncie, Indiana is home to two public elementary schools serving students in grades PK–5 — West View Elementary School (538 students) and North View Elementary School (384 students) — both part of Muncie Community Schools, a district ranked 307 of 374 statewide (18th percentile, 1 star), with 922 students enrolled across the two schools.

West View Elementary School is the stronger school in the most recent 2025–2026 data, earning 2 stars and ranking in the 32nd percentile after 1-star years in 2023–2024 and 2024–2025. It leads North View in ELA All Grades (31.47% vs. 21.12%), Science (29.76% vs. 27.66%), Social Studies 5th grade (26.03% vs. 23.53%), and ELA at every tested grade, and it has slightly lower chronic absenteeism (22.1% vs. 23.3%). North View Elementary School was the higher-ranked school in the two prior years (39th percentile in 2024–2025) but dropped to 1 star and the 24th percentile this year; its clearest bright spot is 5th grade Math, where it outperforms West View 33.33% to 24.66%.

Both schools face shared challenges. Roughly three in five students qualify for free or reduced lunch (63.94% at West View, 60.94% at North View), and more than one in five is chronically absent — well below the district's 35.0% but above Indiana's 16.7%. Both beat the district average in Math and Science yet trail state averages in every grade-level subject shown, with the largest gap in 5th grade Social Studies (about 26% vs. the state's 47.2%). Notably, North View Elementary School spends slightly more per student ($11,860 vs. $11,551) and has a smaller student-teacher ratio (14.2 vs. 15.2) without a consistent proficiency advantage.
