Summary

Eaton Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 274 students in grades K-5 in Eaton, Indiana, which is part of the Delaware Community School Corporation district. The school has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 10 school years, outperforming both the district and the state of Indiana in ILEARN test scores across all grade levels and subject areas.

Eaton Elementary School's academic performance is particularly noteworthy, with 52.74% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 45.49% for the district and 40.3% for the state. In math, the school had 61.64% of students proficient or better, compared to 49.7% for the district and 51.5% for the state. This strong academic achievement is even more impressive given that Eaton Elementary School has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.28% to 71.17% over the past few years, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to other nearby schools in the same district, such as Royerton Elementary and Albany Elementary, Eaton Elementary School consistently outperforms these schools in test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Math. This suggests that Eaton Elementary School is a high-performing school within the Delaware Community School Corporation district. While the school's chronic absenteeism rates are higher than the state average, ranging from 13.9% to 19.4% over the past few years, the school has shown some improvement in this area, and addressing this issue could further enhance its academic outcomes.
