Summary

East Washington Elementary School is a PK–4 school in Pekin, Indiana, serving 506 students as the only elementary in the East Washington School Corp, a small rural district in southern Indiana.

By 2025-26 it ranked 194th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 81st percentile, with 4 stars — up from the 58th percentile in 2020-21, a 23-point climb in five years. Proficiency beats both the state and its own district: 55.88% in English language arts, 65.88% in math, and 51.25% in science, compared with district figures of 41.89%, 41.35%, and 42.37%. Fourth graders outscored third graders in both ELA (58.75% vs. 53.33%) and math (66.25% vs. 65.56%), so a single cohort isn't carrying results. Most comparable nearby schools lost ground over the same stretch, including Grant Line Elementary School, Georgetown Elementary School, and North Harrison Elementary School, while East Washington gained more than any of them.

That improvement comes with the lowest per-student spending in the comparison group — $9,882 — and one of the largest class sizes, 18.0 students per teacher. William W Borden Elementary School, just 4.15 miles away with a similar poverty profile, spends $1,338 more per student and has 13.5:1 classes; East Washington leads it in reading and math but trails in science. Two items are worth watching. Chronic absenteeism is 19.7%, above the state's 16.7% rate, though better than the district's 26.3% and slightly improved from 22.4% in 2022-23. Science proficiency, at 51.25%, is well above the state's 43.8% but about 15 points below the school's own math score, and it has swung widely (from 29.17% in 2022-23) — worth asking about. Overall, this is a steadily improving, top-quintile school.
