Eastover Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state in academic proficiency, with 89.4% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 66.7% for the district and 64.1% for the state. The school ranks in the top 10% of North Carolina elementary schools, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Eastover also excels in the performance of specific student subgroups, ranking in the top 10% for both female and white students.

The school's spending per student ($10,309 in 2018-2019) is also higher than the district average, which may contribute to its academic success.

What people are saying

Wednesday, July 19, 2017

The staff is severely incompetent and the principal has a highly inflated ego. If your child does not fit the socio-economic status of the neighborhood or has any special needs, I would strongly recommend finding a charter or private school. My child entered this school above grade level and with very positive accolades from the previous school. My child fell significantly behind academically, socially and emotionally. The staff treats certain students unfairly and falsely documents incidents to cover themselves (this includes leaving marks on your child and improper use of restraints). Do not waste your time and energy with this school. The damage the staff has caused my child has cost us thousands of dollars in therapy and more hours away from work than we can count. As parents, we could not have been more involved and responsive. They are not equipped to handle all children. Another SAD CMS school! Close Quote
