The school is part of the Collegiate Baton Rouge District, which is ranked 98 out of 118 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Collegiate Baton Rouge has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Louisiana high schools over the past 5 years, also receiving a 1-star rating.

Collegiate Baton Rouge significantly underperforms the state average on standardized tests across all subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 35% of students were proficient or better in Algebra I compared to 63% statewide. The school's proficiency rates in Geometry (29%), English II (50%), U.S. History (23%), and Biology (39%) all lag the state averages by a wide margin. Collegiate Baton Rouge also has a lower 4-year graduation rate around 80% and a higher dropout rate of around 3-4% compared to the state averages.

Collegiate Baton Rouge performs poorly compared to nearby high-performing schools like Baton Rouge Magnet High School, which ranks 4th in the state and has exceptional academic outcomes. Other nearby schools like Belaire High School, Glen Oaks Senior High, and Broadmoor Senior High also outperform Collegiate Baton Rouge across various metrics. Addressing the school's challenges, particularly the high chronic absenteeism rates, will require a comprehensive approach targeting the root causes of its poor outcomes.
