Summary:
The Eastern Pulaski Community School Corp district in Indiana has only one elementary school, Eastern Pulaski Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade.
Eastern Pulaski Elementary School has an enrollment of 466 students and has been ranked between 353 and 520 out of over 1,000 Indiana elementary schools in the past three school years, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is mixed, with 3rd-grade students performing better than the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, but 4th and 5th-grade students struggling in these subjects compared to state averages. The school's overall ELA and Math proficiency rates are also below the district-level averages, indicating room for improvement. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which could be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance.
With over 56% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Eastern Pulaski Elementary School serves a high-needs population, which may require additional resources and support to improve academic outcomes. The school's spending per student of $12,762 is relatively high, but it's unclear if this funding is being effectively utilized to drive student achievement. The school's student-teacher ratio of 14.1 is relatively low, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention to students.
