Estem East Village Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Arkansas elementary schools, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science around 25-30%, significantly below the state averages of 34-39%. The school's performance has been stagnant, with little to no improvement in test scores over the past 5 years. This may be due to the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 66.5% to 75.04% over the past 3 years, and the school's lower per-student spending of $8,224 in 2018-2019 compared to the state average.

Interestingly, nearby Gibbs Magnet Elementary and Carver Steam Magnet Elementary, which are part of the Little Rock School District, significantly outperform Estem East Village Elementary in academic proficiency, despite serving a similar demographic of students. Additionally, other nearby traditional public schools, such as M.L. King Elementary, Washington Elementary, and Boone Park Elementary, have even lower academic performance than Estem East Village Elementary, suggesting systemic challenges in the local public education system.
