Raccoon Cons Elementary School consistently performs above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grades, with particularly strong performance in 3rd and 8th grade ELA. However, the school's Mathematics proficiency rates are more mixed, ranging from 27.8% in 6th grade to 76.2% in 3rd grade. The school also serves a significant population of low socioeconomic status (SES) students, with 52.97% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. Interestingly, the school's per-student spending of $14,538 in 2023-2024 is higher than the state average, suggesting a commitment to providing resources to support student learning.

Compared to nearby schools, Raccoon Cons Elementary School generally outperforms in academic proficiency, particularly in ELA. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's ELA proficiency rate for all grades was 65.9%, compared to 22.9% at Odin Attendance Center K-8, 46.7% at Hawthorn Elementary School, and 59.2% at Rome Community Cons Elementary School. However, in Mathematics, the school's performance is more mixed, with some nearby schools performing better in certain grade levels. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% in 2024-2025 is also a significant concern that the school and district should address.
