While Doherty Elementary School was once a high-performing institution, ranking 189th out of 1,566 Michigan elementary schools in 2011-2012, its statewide ranking has since declined significantly, dropping to 936th out of 1,488 in 2024-2025.

Doherty Elementary School faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5% and a relatively high percentage of students (41.33%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school may be serving a population with greater socioeconomic challenges. Despite a lower student-teacher ratio of 14.8, the school's academic performance metrics continue to lag, indicating a need to examine other factors, such as curriculum, instructional practices, or school leadership, that could be contributing to the underperformance.
