Findley Elementary's academic achievement is exceptional, with students consistently outperforming their peers in the Beaverton School District and across Oregon in standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 74.2% of Findley's 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 50.4% in the Beaverton School District and 40.3% statewide.

While Findley Elementary's academic performance is outstanding, the school has experienced relatively high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 10.2% to 38.1% over the past few years. This is an area of concern that the school may need to address to maintain its strong academic results. Compared to nearby schools, such as Rock Creek Elementary and Forest Park Elementary, Findley consistently outperforms in academic achievement, but some of these nearby schools also demonstrate strong performance and high rankings in the state.
