Summary

Eastern Alamance High is a public high school in Mebane, NC, serving about 952 students in grades 9–12. It is part of Alamance-Burlington Schools, and its current statewide rank of 432nd out of 662 high schools (35th percentile, 2 stars) places it among the district’s stronger traditional schools — ahead of Southern Alamance High, Walter M Williams High, Hugh M Cummings High, and Graham High, though behind Southeast Alamance High.

Eastern’s most distinctive academic strength is Math I (Algebra I) end-of-course testing, where 61.7% of students scored proficient versus 42.1% statewide and roughly 35–39% at nearby comparison schools. Its 90.5% graduation rate also tops both the state (88.8%) and district (85.9%) averages, and it has held steady in the 89–92% range for five straight years. Subgroups that often struggle elsewhere are showing real gains too: English learners jumped from the 7th to the 45th percentile statewide, and special education students improved from the 30th to the 58th percentile.

The tougher side of the picture shows up in other tested subjects, where English II, Biology, and Math III proficiency all fall well below state averages. Identified gifted students rank at only the 27th percentile, suggesting advanced-level support may need attention. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern at 34.5% versus 24.2% statewide, though it is better than several district peers such as Hugh M Cummings High (51.7%) and Southern Alamance High (43.6%). The school spends less per student than most nearby high schools, and its free/reduced-price lunch rate reached 99.68% after a meal-eligibility reporting shift. For families weighing options, Southeast Alamance High offers the clearest local contrast: stronger Biology, English II, and Math III results and far lower absenteeism, while Eastern counters with higher Math I proficiency and a slightly better graduation rate.
