The school has also maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 88% to 99.4% over the past few years, which are higher than the district and state averages. However, the school has experienced higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the district and state, ranging from 18% to 35%, which is an area for improvement.

When comparing Indian River Charter High School to the nearby public high schools, Sebastian River High School and Vero Beach High School, it becomes evident that the charter school outperforms these schools in academic test scores and graduation rates. This suggests that the charter school model and the school's focus on academic excellence are contributing to its strong performance. Additionally, the school's smaller student population of 691 students, compared to the larger nearby public high schools, may contribute to its ability to provide more personalized attention and support to its students, leading to its strong academic outcomes.
