Henry High has experienced significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 75 out of 476 Minnesota high schools in 2022-2023 (4-star rating) to a low of 440 out of 472 in 2021-2022 (0-star rating). The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with the school ranking highly for English Language Learner (ELL) students but struggling with other subgroups, such as female, male, Asian, African American, and low socioeconomic status (SES) students. Henry High's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III), is significantly below the state and district averages across multiple subjects and grade levels.

Henry High's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 67.8% to 84.2%, which are generally lower than the state and district averages. The school's dropout rates have also been higher than the state and district, ranging from 4.4% to 7.1% in recent years. With a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 69.2% to 79.84% in recent years, Henry High may face unique challenges in providing the necessary resources, support, and tailored instruction to meet the diverse needs of its student body. The proximity of Henry High to other schools in the Minneapolis Public School District, such as Plymouth Youth Center and Minneapolis Academy & Career Center, may present opportunities for collaboration, resource sharing, and best practice exchange to improve overall educational outcomes.
