With a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the years, currently ranking 235 out of 687 Kentucky elementary schools.

Earlington Elementary stands out for its higher percentage of white students (83.03%) compared to the state average, and a lower percentage of minority students. Academically, the school generally outperforms the state and county averages, particularly in mathematics, with 65% of 3rd graders, 55% of 4th graders, and 67% of 5th graders proficient or better, compared to the state averages of 43%, 42%, and 41%, respectively. However, the school also has a relatively high percentage of students (68.95%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Crofton Elementary School, Providence Elementary School, and Dawson Springs Elementary, Earlington Elementary generally outperforms them in academic proficiency, particularly in mathematics.
