NORTHWEST COMMUNITY MIDDLE SCHOOL

Northwest Community Middle School is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Indianapolis Public Schools school district, located in Indianapolis, IN with about 220 students. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 35 teachers, Northwest Community Middle School has a student/teacher ratio of about 6:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Northwest Community Middle School, located at 5525 W 34th St in Indianapolis, operates as part of the Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS) district. The school serves a diverse student body, focusing on providing a comprehensive middle school education that prepares students for the transition into high school. Its mission centers on fostering academic growth, social-emotional development, and building a sense of community within the Northwest area of Indianapolis.

The school environment emphasizes standard middle school curriculum offerings, including core subjects like mathematics, language arts, science, and social studies, often complemented by extracurricular activities and support services aimed at student engagement. Because it is an IPS facility, the school adheres to district-wide educational standards while working to address the specific needs of the local neighborhood. Families interested in specific programs, current test scores, or enrollment procedures are typically encouraged to contact the school directly or visit the official IPS district website for the most up-to-date data.
