However, the overall performance of the schools in the 41035 zip code area is generally below the state averages across various metrics, including test scores, chronic absenteeism, and graduation rates. For example, in 2024-2025, only 29% of 10th graders at Grant County High School were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 41%. Additionally, all the schools in the area had a chronic absenteeism rate of 25% for the 2024-2025 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. These challenges are likely exacerbated by the high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.73% at Grant County High School to 84.06% at Sherman Elementary, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage in the community.
