Summary:
Zip code 42164 has five schools in the Allen County district: one elementary, two middle, one high school and one alternative school, spanning elementary through high school. The results show bright spots in a few grades, but performance is generally below state levels: across 30 reported 2025–26 school-grade test results, the average was 12 percentage points below the state, and only two results were above it.
Allen County Intermediate Center had the clearest test-score bright spots: grade-4 math was 46% versus 43% statewide, and science was 42% versus 40%. But results varied by grade, including grade-5 writing at 10% versus 35%. Allen County-Scottsville High School stood out for graduation: its 2025–26 rate was 97%, compared with 94% statewide, even though all six of its listed test results were below the state. At the low end, Patriot Academy scored 19% in grade-10 reading versus 49% statewide and 14% in grade-11 writing versus 47%.
On tests with results in both years, the average gap from the state widened from 9 percentage points below in 2024–25 to 12 below in 2025–26; the gap grew in 19 results, narrowed in eight and stayed the same in one. The Primary Center’s grade-3 math fell 10 points and reading fell 2 points year over year. SchoolDigger rankings also declined: the High School moved from the 64th percentile in 2023–24 to the 33rd in 2025–26, while James E Bazzell Middle School went from the 34th to the 19th percentile. Context differs too: in 2024–25, student-teacher ratios ranged from 16.0 at Bazzell to 39.6 at Patriot, and free/reduced lunch eligible shares ranged from 55% at the High School to 74% at Patriot. These are context measures, not explanations of school results; some Patriot scores are state-suppressed and unknown.
