While the school has some areas of strength, such as above-average 10th grade reading proficiency, it also faces challenges in maintaining consistent academic performance across different subject areas and grade levels.

Waterville-Elysian-Morristown Senior had a 84.2% four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year, slightly below the state average, and a 4.4% dropout rate, which is slightly higher than the state average. The school's math and science proficiency rates were below the state averages, while its 10th grade reading proficiency rate was higher. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, dropping from 291 out of 476 Minnesota high schools in 2022-2023 to 183 out of 450 in 2024-2025.

With over a quarter of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, Waterville-Elysian-Morristown High School likely serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which can impact academic performance. The school's relatively small size, with only 257 students, may also present both challenges and opportunities in terms of resources, personalized attention, and community engagement.
