Best Public Schools in Zip Code 47320

Summary:

The 47320 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Albany Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 and is part of the Delaware Community School Corp district. While the district is ranked 68 out of 380 in Indiana and has a 4-star rating, Albany Elementary School appears to be facing some challenges, particularly in terms of declining test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates.

Albany Elementary School has an enrollment of 263 students and a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 69.2%, indicating that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. The school's ILEARN test scores, while generally higher than the state averages, have been declining from the 2023-2024 to the 2024-2025 school year in both English Language Arts and Math proficiency across all grade levels. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% is relatively high, which could be impacting student performance and learning outcomes.

Despite these challenges, Albany Elementary School appears to be well-resourced, with a spending per student of $13,144 and a small student-teacher ratio of 11.4. These factors may provide opportunities for the school to implement targeted interventions and support to address the declining test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates, and ultimately improve student outcomes.
