Madison Consolidated Junior High School consistently outperforms the overall district in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency, with 45.26% of students proficient in ELA and 36.03% proficient in Math, compared to the district's 41.01% and 37.07%, respectively. The school's 8th-grade ELA proficiency rate of 49.73% is also significantly higher than the state average of 42.7%. However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.8% to 37.5% over the past few years, which is an area of concern.

Compared to nearby schools, Switzerland County Middle School and Southwestern Middle School, Madison Consolidated Junior High School generally outperforms them in ELA and Math proficiency. However, Switzerland County Middle School has a slightly lower chronic absenteeism rate and a more favorable student-teacher ratio. Overall, Madison Consolidated Junior High School appears to be a relatively strong-performing middle school within its local context, but the high chronic absenteeism rates remain a concern that should be addressed.
