Computing
Eastern Hancock uses a form of computer distribution known as 1:1 Computing. One to One computing is where all students and teachers are given a computer, or any other device that is similar. Laptops and desktops are the current standard, however, the students of Eastern Hancock High School and Eastern Hancock Middle School are given Netbooks. The teachers in all three schools (High School, Middle School, and Elementary School) get laptops.
Trivia
Although Eastern Hancock's school district covers more area than any other school district in the county, it has the smallest number of enrolled students due to eastern Hancock County being mainly rural.
Eastern Hancock won the 1985 Class A Football State Championship as well as the 2003 and 2011 State Science Academic Championship. The Eastern Hancock Fine Arts Team finished 6th in the State in 2012.
The Eastern Hancock FFA has won and/or placed in the top 5 at many area, state, and national judging contests in both the senior and junior divisions.
