Results vary by grade and subject: the high school’s current ninth- and tenth-grade ELA scores are near state levels, while the elementary school has both above-state results in some grades and substantial shortfalls elsewhere. Most importantly, in 2025–26 the elementary school’s all-grade ELA and math were 20 and 15 percentage points below the state, and those gaps widened from the prior year.

Recent trends differ by grade and measure: elementary all-grade ELA fell from 44% to 37% between 2024–25 and 2025–26 as the state rose, widening the school’s gap by 11 points; its math gap widened by 5 points. High-school ninth-grade ELA rose 22 points over those years, while tenth-grade ELA fell 7 points. SchoolDigger ranks the high school at the 51st percentile with 3 stars, versus the elementary school at the 43rd percentile with 2 stars; the elementary school’s rank has been comparatively steady. In 2024–25, free/reduced lunch eligible students were 45% at the elementary school and 35% at the high school, while student–teacher ratios were 11.6 and 7.2, respectively. These figures offer context, not an explanation for test results. Because the schools serve different grades and use different tests, their achievement results are not directly comparable.
