Summary

Eastern Pulaski Elementary School is a PK–5 school serving 473 students in Winamac, Indiana, and is part of the Eastern Pulaski Community School Corp. The district ranks 125th of 374 in Indiana (67th percentile, 3 stars), and the school ranked 416th of 1,015 in 2025–2026, placing it at the 59th percentile with 3 stars — a rebound from the 48th percentile (2 stars) the year before. About 55% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school's clearest strength is attendance. Chronic absenteeism was just 4.9% in 2024–2025, far below the district's 8.8% and the state's 16.7%, and down dramatically from 23.7% in 2021–2022. Among nearby schools, only Knox Community Elementary School (3.0%) is lower, and the nearby average is about 10%. Academically, 2025–2026 ILEARN results beat the nearby average in English language arts (45.41% vs. 31.77%), math (51.53% vs. 44.16%), and science (47.56% vs. 38.72%). ELA is essentially tied with Culver Elementary School (45.35%) for the best locally, though Culver is stronger in math and science. The main weakness is 5th-grade social studies at 30.26%, below the state's 47.2%.

Grade-level results show a consistent pattern: 3rd and 4th grades score above state benchmarks in ELA and math, while 5th grade falls below state in ELA, math, and social studies. Compared with similar schools, Eastern Pulaski posts higher ELA and math than North Judson-San Pierre Elementary School and much higher ELA and science than Pioneer Elementary School, while having far better attendance than both. It spends $12,762 per student with a 13.5 student/teacher ratio, better than the nearby average of 14.8.
