Best Public Schools in Zip Code 47954

Summary:

Zip code 47954 is served by one public elementary school, Ladoga Elementary School, which caters to students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and is part of the South Montgomery Com School Corp.

Ladoga Elementary School stands out for its exceptional performance, particularly in 4th-grade Math and Science, where proficiency rates significantly exceed both district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 academic year, 87.5% of 4th graders were proficient in Math, compared to the district's 73.77% and Indiana's 49.2%. The school also demonstrates strong overall proficiency in Math and Science across all grades, consistently outperforming the district. This strong academic showing is reflected in its impressive statewide ranking, improving from 232nd in the 2021-2022 school year to 48th out of 1016 Indiana elementary schools in 2022-2023, earning a 5-star rating.

While Ladoga Elementary School shows great promise, there are areas that warrant attention. 3rd-grade performance in English Language Arts and Math is notably lower than the school's overall averages and, in some instances, falls below district and state benchmarks. Additionally, the chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% in the 2023-2024 school year is a concern that may impact student success. The school serves a significant portion of students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, with nearly half qualifying for free or reduced lunch, yet it achieves strong academic outcomes in many areas, suggesting effective educational programs. The school's spending per student is $13,476, which appears to correlate with its strong performance metrics.
