The school is part of the Alden Hebron School District 19, which is ranked 282 out of 811 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Alden-Hebron Middle School has shown mixed performance compared to state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, 56.3% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 43.8% were proficient or better in Math, which are above the state averages but below the district averages. However, the school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with some grades and subjects performing better than others. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 26.3% in the 2023-2024 school year, significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to nearby middle schools, Alden-Hebron Middle School generally performs better than some schools, such as Stanton School and Harvard Junior High School, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Creekside Middle School and Northwood Middle School in the Woodstock CUSD 200 district. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be contributing to the lower academic performance, but the school's fluctuating performance suggests it is facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic progress.
