While Filer Intermediate School's test scores on the ISAT exams are generally on par with or slightly below the Filer District and state averages, there is room for improvement, particularly in the areas of Math and Science proficiency. The school's higher chronic absenteeism rates and fluctuating free and reduced lunch rates, ranging from 18.78% to 37.14%, may also be areas to address. When compared to other nearby school districts, such as Wendell and Kimberly, Filer Intermediate School generally performs better in terms of test scores and school rankings, but the Wendell and Kimberly districts have higher percentages of Hispanic and economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to their lower performance.
