Summary

East North Street Academy is a public elementary school in Greenville, SC, serving 668 students in grades PK-5 within the highly-rated Greenville 01 school district. The school has experienced a notable recent decline in its state ranking, dropping from the 62nd percentile (3 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 46th percentile (2 stars) in the most recent data, a trend that stands in contrast to many of its neighbors.

One of the most significant concerns for parents to know is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.2%, which is well above the district (22.5%) and state (22.3%) averages. This rate is dramatically higher than nearby schools like Augusta Circle Elementary (2.6%), Sterling School (6.1%), and Stone Academy (10.6%). The attendance issue appears to be a major factor in the academic struggles, particularly in 5th-grade mathematics, where proficiency has fallen from 61.3% to just 35.1% over two years—far below the district average of 60.4%. Additionally, the school has seen a sharp decline in performance among male students, dropping from the 63rd percentile to the 43rd percentile in recent years.

Despite these challenges, there are bright spots worth noting. The school demonstrates strong performance with specific student groups, ranking in the 67th percentile for African American students and the 69th percentile for Disabled students. It also spends more per student ($14,796) than high-performing neighbors like Sara Collins Elementary ($12,253) and Summit Drive Elementary ($13,176). The school is geographically surrounded by some of the state's top-performing elementary schools, including Sterling School and Augusta Circle Elementary, which rank in the top 1% statewide. This contrast highlights that the recent decline is school-specific rather than a district-wide trend, and suggests that addressing attendance and re-evaluating instructional strategies could be key to reversing the current trajectory.

Open Quote I strongly disagree with your ratings. ENSA tested above many of the schools you have ranked above them. In fact, schools that only received a “Good” rating are ranked above them when they received an “Excellent” this year. Your statistics are off on multiple areas. Visit this school once and you will see the amazing things they are doing. I hope people read this review and realize how biased your reviews are and search a different site. Close Quote
