Gilman City High has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on standardized tests, with proficiency rates in Algebra I (16.7%), Biology I (18.7%), and 8th-grade English Language Arts (31.2%) well below the state averages in the 2022-2023 school year. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.31% to 70% over the past three school years, suggesting a relatively low-income student population. Despite having a lower student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to some nearby schools, such as Gallatin High and South Harrison High, Gilman City High's academic performance lags behind these schools.

Gilman City High's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade, from a high of 113 out of 528 Missouri high schools in the 2010-2011 school year to a low of 297 out of 352 in the 2022-2023 school year. This concerning trend suggests that the school may be facing significant challenges that need to be addressed to ensure students receive a high-quality education.
