In 2024-2025, the school's 4th-grade students outperformed the state average in both Math and English Language Arts, indicating strong academic achievement in the upper grades.

Brookfield Elementary has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 9.5% to 16.4% in recent years, which is higher than the state average and some of the nearby schools.
