Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $6,565 to $8,104 per student, White's Junior-Senior High School consistently performs poorly on standardized tests compared to the state and its own district averages.

The school's four-year graduation rate, while improving from 73.3% in 2022-2023 to 88.4% in 2023-2024, is still lower than the state average. Additionally, White's Junior-Senior High School has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.8% to 44.1% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the two other high schools in the MSD Wabash County Schools district, Northfield Junior-Senior High School and Southwood Junior-Senior High School, significantly outperform White's Junior-Senior High School on academic measures.
