The school is part of the Keeneyville School District 20, which is ranked 595 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Spring Wood Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Illinois middle schools, with its performance on state assessments (IAR/ISA) significantly below the state and district averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 37.4% of students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 53.1% statewide, and only 24.2% were proficient or better in Math, compared to 38.5% statewide. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.8% to 26.3% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average.

In comparison, the nearby Roselle Middle School, which is only about 2.65 miles away, ranks in the top 50 middle schools in Illinois and has significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA (86.4%) and Math (66.2%). The nearby schools also tend to have lower percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to their stronger academic performance. Spring Wood Middle School's performance has declined over the past 10 years, suggesting the need for significant interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
