Summary

Eastern Elementary is a public elementary school located in Greenville, North Carolina, serving 792 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Pitt County Schools district, which is ranked 124 out of 242 districts in the state.

Eastern Elementary's academic performance has been mixed compared to the district and state averages. While the school performs better than the district and state in some grade levels and subjects, such as 4th grade math and 5th grade science, it lags behind in others, like 3rd grade math. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White students consistently performing better than Hispanic, English Language Learner, African American, male, and low-income students.

Interestingly, nearby schools in the Pitt County district, such as Ridgewood Elementary, Wintergreen Primary, and Wintergreen Intermediate, generally outperform Eastern Elementary on state assessments and have higher rankings from SchoolDigger. These schools serve a more affluent student population, which may contribute to their stronger academic performance. Additionally, Eastern Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the past several years, suggesting the school may be facing challenges in effectively serving its student population.
