Partridge Elementary consistently ranks in the top 25% of Missouri elementary schools, with strong academic performance on state assessments, particularly in mathematics and English Language Arts. The school's 5th-grade students scored 64.6% proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 51.5% for the Waynesville R-VI district and 38.2% for the state.

While Partridge Elementary generally outperforms nearby schools like Waynesville East Elementary and Freedom Elementary, another school in the district, Thayer Elementary, has consistently outperformed Partridge in both mathematics and English Language Arts assessments. Partridge's unique challenges, such as serving a significant population of military-connected students, may contribute to its relatively low ranking for this subgroup compared to its overall performance.
