Marlette JrSr High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 152 out of 531 high schools (2021-2022) to 522 out of 735 high schools (2022-2023). The school's SchoolDigger rating has also varied, ranging from 1 star (2022-2023) to 4 stars (2021-2022, 2015-2016, 2014-2015). The school's performance for different student groups has been mixed, with female students ranking higher than male students in recent years. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 81.7% (2022-2023) to 93.8% (2023-2024), and its dropout rate has fluctuated between 2.0% (2023-2024) and 8.1% (2022-2023). Chronic absenteeism has been a concern, ranging from 17.5% (2023-2024) to 30.8% (2022-2023).

Compared to nearby schools, such as Yale Senior High School and North Branch High School, which have higher statewide rankings and ratings, Marlette JrSr High School's performance has been more mixed. This may be partly due to the school's relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 64.23% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's per-student spending has been generally higher than the state average, but its student-teacher ratio has been relatively high, which may impact the level of individual attention and support available to students.
