Its 4th grade results are the weak spot, with ELA at 27.83% and math at 37.72%, both below state. Westport Middle-High School shows the biggest improvement, rising from 234 of 348 schools to 141 of 353 and from 2 stars to 3 stars. Its high school results are strong — a 96.8% graduation rate, 10th grade ELA at 47.47% and 10th grade science at 45.36%, all above state — but its middle grades lag badly, with 6th grade math at 19.49% compared with 42.59% statewide.

Civics remains a consistent weakness at Westport Middle-High, with 8th grade civics at 31.30% versus 39.77% statewide. Alice A Macomber has no test scores or ranking because it serves only PK–K; its main data points are its 15.0 student-teacher ratio, the highest of the three, and $16,452 per student in spending (2020–2021). Free/reduced-lunch percentages are not available for any of the three schools, so no economic comparison is possible.
