Sublimity Elementary School is consistently one of the top-performing elementary schools in Kentucky, ranking within the top 10 schools in the state for several years. The school has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating excellent academic performance and student outcomes. Sublimity Elementary outperforms the Laurel County and Kentucky state averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 81% of 3rd-grade students at Sublimity were proficient or better in KSA/Reading, compared to 68% in Laurel County and 47% statewide. The school also ranks among the top 20 elementary schools in Kentucky for various student subgroups, including female students, male students, white students, special education students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Sublimity Elementary School has a relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $19,710 to $28,093 over the past few years, which may contribute to its strong academic performance, other nearby schools, such as East Bernstadt Elementary School, demonstrate high performance with a lower per-student spending. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rates have fluctuated over the years, with a high of 38.1% in 2023-2024, which is an area the school may need to address to ensure consistent student attendance and engagement.
