The school's performance on state assessments is significantly higher than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with 55.1% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 38.6%.

While Anderson Middle School outperforms most of the nearby middle schools, it is worth noting that the two magnet schools in the Birmingham Public Schools district, Derby Middle School and Berkshire Middle School, significantly outperform Anderson Middle School and the state averages across all subject areas. This is likely due to the more selective student population of these magnet schools.
