The school has consistently demonstrated strong academic performance, ranking in the top 30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools in recent years and outperforming the state average in PSSA tests for Math and English Language Arts.

Knapp Elementary School's performance is particularly noteworthy in certain student subgroups, such as English Language Learners and Disabled Students, where it ranks in the top 10-30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools. The school also serves a significant population of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 46.8% to 58.37% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
