Summary

Eastridge Elementary School is a public elementary school in Lincoln, Nebraska, serving 279 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Lincoln Public Schools district, which is ranked 95 out of 115 districts in the state.

Eastridge Elementary consistently outperforms the Lincoln district and the state of Nebraska in standardized test scores for English Language Arts and Mathematics. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 83.33% of Eastridge's 4th-grade students scored proficient or better in ELA, compared to 56.52% for the Lincoln district and 59.59% for the state. In Mathematics, 72.92% of Eastridge's 4th-graders scored proficient or better, compared to 54.45% for the Lincoln district and 60.65% for the state. Eastridge also has a higher statewide ranking, consistently placing in the top half of Nebraska elementary schools, though its ranking has declined from a high of 5 stars in 2015-2016 to 3 stars in the most recent 2024-2025 school year.

When comparing Eastridge Elementary to nearby schools, it generally outperforms them in academic achievement and school ranking. For instance, Randolph Elementary School, which is 1.71 miles away, has a lower statewide ranking and lower test scores than Eastridge. However, Morley Elementary School, which is 1.13 miles away, has a higher statewide ranking and stronger performance in some areas, such as English Language Arts. Eastridge's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.9% to 25.6% over the past few years, are an area of concern that may be impacting the school's overall performance.
