The school has shown consistent improvement in its academic performance, ranking 276 out of 872 Minnesota elementary schools in the 2024-2025 school year with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

McGregor Elementary outperforms the state and district averages in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. The school has also demonstrated strong performance among specific student subgroups, particularly female students and special education students, ranking 167 and 116 out of their respective statewide categories in 2024-2025.
