Despite the district's low performance, Labelle Middle School consistently outperforms the district and the state of Florida in various standardized test scores, including EOC/Algebra 1, EOC/Geometry, EOC/Civics, and Statewide Science/Science for 8th grade. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Labelle Middle School had a 70% proficiency rate in EOC/Algebra 1, compared to 32% for the Hendry district and 60% for the state.

However, the school's overall ranking and star rating have been inconsistent, fluctuating between 1 and 2 stars, suggesting that the school may be facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic progress.
