Summary

Northeastern Elementary School in Fountain City, Indiana, is a PK–5 school serving 614 students as part of Northeastern Wayne Schools. It is one of the larger elementary schools in its comparison group, second only to Hagerstown Elementary School, and its district ranks 211 of 374 in Indiana. Attendance is the school's standout strength: chronic absenteeism was 7.1% in 2024–25, the lowest among all nearby schools, less than half the state rate of 16.7%, and below the district's 7.6%.

Achievement is mixed. In 2025–26 ILEARN results, math proficiency (45.39%) was above the district (36.86%), while English/language arts (34.32%) fell below the district (39.68%), and science (36.08%) was slightly below the district and far below Hagerstown Elementary School, Centerville-Abington Elementary School, Randolph Southern Elementary School and Charles Elementary School. Grade-level results show a sharp split: 5th grade beat the state in ELA (56.82%), math (54.55%) and social studies (50%), but 3rd and 4th grade ELA and math trailed the state, and 4th grade science (36.08%) lagged well behind nearby peers.

The school's rank history shows a long climb to the 65th percentile and 3 stars in 2021–22, followed by a slide to 46th percentile and 2 stars in 2025–26 — above most Richmond elementary schools but below Hagerstown, Centerville-Abington and Randolph Southern. Per-student spending was $12,094 in 2023–24, higher than those rural peers even though ELA and science proficiency trail them. Overall, the school pairs strong attendance and solid 5th grade results with early-grade ELA and science as the clearest areas to watch.
