In zip code 47633, there is one public elementary school, North Elementary School, serving students from Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade. This school is part of the highly-rated MSD North Posey County Schools district, which ranks 12th out of 380 districts in Indiana.
North Elementary School demonstrates exceptional performance in mathematics, with 3rd and 4th graders showing proficiency rates significantly above both district and state averages for the 2024-2025 school year. While math proficiency is strong across grades, English Language Arts (ELA) and Science proficiency are more varied, generally falling at or below district averages. A notable concern is the 6th grade's ELA and Math proficiency in the 2023-2024 school year, which was significantly lower than other grades. The school also faces a challenge with a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% for the 2023-2024 school year.
The school serves a diverse student body, with 42.31% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. Despite these challenges, North Elementary School benefits from a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.8, suggesting that students may receive more individualized attention. The district's strong overall ranking and the school's spending per student of $9,255 indicate a commitment to resources. While the school excels in math, focusing on improving ELA and Science outcomes, particularly for the 6th grade, and addressing chronic absenteeism, will be key to enhancing overall student success.
