While the Eastern Howard School Corporation is ranked 86 out of 381 school districts in Indiana and rated 4 out of 5 stars, Eastern Elementary School does not appear to be a standout school in the region. The school's performance is more average, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 11.7% and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency scores (36.97%) that are lower than the district (41.07%) and state (38.6-41.8%) averages. However, the school's math proficiency scores (52.38%) are higher than the district (46.08%) and state (40.8-52.4%) averages, indicating a potential area of strength.

The high percentage of students (45.19%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that Eastern Elementary School serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, which may impact academic performance and resource allocation. While the school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, its individual performance is more average when compared to the state as a whole, highlighting the importance of analyzing individual school data rather than relying solely on district-level information.
