Over the past decade, El Dorado High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 822 out of 1,974 Texas high schools (3-star rating) to 1,426 out of 1,743 (1-star rating). Its current 3-star rating places it in the middle of the pack among Texas high schools. The school maintains a solid graduation rate of 89-91%, slightly above the state average, and a low dropout rate of 1.4-3.3%. However, its academic performance on standardized tests is mixed, with strengths in U.S. History but challenges in Algebra I, English I Reading, and English II Reading compared to district and state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, El Dorado High School generally performs on par or slightly below its peers in the Socorro Independent School District, such as Americas High School and Montwood High School. However, it outperforms some schools in other districts, like Mountain View High School and Bel Air High School. The school's high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, ranging from 69.43% to 75.23%, may be a contributing factor to its academic performance.
