East Hardy Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of West Virginia elementary schools, with a ranking between 304-341 out of 375-408 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the state and district averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 6.3% to 40.9% in Math and 22.7% to 46.9% in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 32.8% to 53% and 44.8% to 50.3%, respectively.

East Hardy Elementary has a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the bottom 10% of West Virginia elementary schools for this subgroup. The school also ranks in the bottom 10-20% for its performance on state assessments for female, male, and white student subgroups. However, the school performs better for its special education students, ranking in the top 50% of West Virginia elementary schools for this subgroup. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending compared to nearby schools, these resources do not appear to have translated into significantly better academic outcomes, suggesting the need for a re-evaluation of the school's resource allocation and instructional practices.
