The 46250 zip code area in Indiana is home to two schools: Allisonville Elementary School, a public elementary school, and Dynamic Minds Academy, a public charter school serving grades K-12. While Allisonville Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, with strong academic outcomes across multiple subjects and grade levels, Dynamic Minds Academy faces significant challenges in student achievement, graduation rates, and resource utilization.

In contrast, Dynamic Minds Academy struggles, with only 6.45% and 6.9% of its students meeting proficiency standards in ELA and math.
