Northeast East Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 317 out of 1,020 Indiana elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 518 out of 1,010 in 2023-2024. Its rating has also decreased from 3 stars to 2 stars during this time. The school's academic performance is mixed, with strengths in mathematics, particularly in the upper elementary grades, but struggles in English Language Arts, especially in the middle and upper elementary grades. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 18.0%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

The school serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 68.45% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high level of economic disadvantage among the student population may require the school to allocate additional resources and support to address the unique needs of its students. Overall, the data suggests that Northeast East Elementary School should focus on improving its ELA instruction, addressing chronic absenteeism, and supporting its economically disadvantaged student population to drive better outcomes and improve its overall standing.
