Summary

Easton Elementary School is a public elementary school in Winston Salem, North Carolina, serving 531 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Winston Salem / Forsyth County Schools district, which is ranked 159 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Easton Elementary has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in North Carolina, consistently scoring in the bottom 5-10% of schools statewide and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past 10 school years. The school significantly underperforms compared to the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 13.5% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading, compared to 44.6% for the district and 46.7% statewide. Similarly, in math, only 32.4% of 3rd graders were proficient, compared to 61.8% for the district and 64.1% statewide.

Despite higher per-student spending than the district average, Easton Elementary's academic outcomes remain poor, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving student performance. The school's high concentration of students from low-income families may contribute to the academic struggles, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the student population. In comparison, the The Arts Based School, a public magnet school in the district, significantly outperforms Easton Elementary and the district as a whole, with proficiency rates often 30-40 percentage points higher.
