Mockingbird Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Nebraska elementary schools, with a 0 or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing significantly below the state average. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are notably lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 33% of 3rd graders, 27% of 4th graders, 35% of 5th graders, and 38% of 6th graders at Mockingbird Elementary were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district averages of 48.98%, 47.47%, 45.53%, and 50.21%, respectively. The school's Mathematics proficiency rates are also low, ranging from 29% for 3rd grade to 45% for 6th grade, compared to the district averages of 54.69% to 54.43%.

Interestingly, Mockingbird Elementary School's performance is significantly lower than the nearby Meadows Elementary School and Seymour Elementary School, which are also part of the Ralston Public Schools district but perform much better academically. This suggests that the quality of education can vary significantly within the same district. Additionally, Mockingbird Elementary has a much higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (70.42% free/reduced lunch recipients) compared to the nearby higher-performing schools, which have lower percentages of students from low-income families.
