Grass Range 7-8 has consistently outperformed the state and its local Grass Range Elementary school in proficiency rates for MAST/English Language Arts, MAST/Mathematics, and Montana Science Assessment/Science. However, the school's performance in Montana State Tests/Mathematics and Reading has been more mixed, with proficiency rates ranging from 25% to 37.5% in Math and 31.25% to 33.33% in Reading, compared to the state averages of 36.59% and 46.03% in 2022-2023. The school's statewide ranking has also fluctuated significantly over the years, from a high of 17th out of 222 middle schools in 2024-2025 to a low of 152nd out of 200 in 2020-2021.

With a very low student-teacher ratio ranging from 4.4 to 9.6 students per teacher, Grass Range 7-8 stands out. However, the school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 33.33% to 40% in recent years. This suggests that the school may serve a population with lower socioeconomic status, which could impact academic outcomes and resource availability. The small enrollment of just 09 students may also contribute to the school's fluctuating performance and unique challenges in terms of resource allocation and extracurricular opportunities.
