Eastern Middle School is a public middle school located in Beaver, Ohio, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 186 students. The school is part of the Eastern Local School District, which is ranked 423 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eastern Middle School has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Ohio middle schools, typically between the 300s to 600s out of over 1,000 schools. The school's performance on state tests is mixed, with some subject areas and grade levels performing above the state average, while others are below. For example, in 2024-2025, 8th-grade science proficiency was 69.7%, which is higher than the state average of 63%. However, 7th-grade math proficiency was only 37.5%, compared to the state average of 50%. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 18.7% in 2023-2024 to 29.8% in 2024-2025, which is notably higher than the state average.

While Eastern Middle School's overall performance is in the middle to lower range, the school's gifted and talented students have performed exceptionally well, ranking in the top 30 out of 196 Ohio middle schools in 2023-2024. This suggests the school may be effectively serving its high-achieving students, even if the overall student population is struggling. Additionally, the school's low socioeconomic status students have performed relatively well, ranking in the top 362 out of 983 Ohio middle schools in 2024-2025, indicating the school is providing effective support and resources for its economically disadvantaged students. Nearby schools, such as Huntington Middle School and Southeastern Middle School, generally outperform Eastern Middle School on state tests and have lower chronic absenteeism rates.
