The school's academic performance generally ranks in the top half of New Jersey high schools, with strengths in English Language Arts and Algebra II, but struggles in Algebra I, Geometry, and science compared to district and state averages.

Freehold Borough High School's female students outperform their male counterparts, and the school's Asian and White student subgroups perform well, ranking in the top half or top quarter of New Jersey high schools. However, the school's African American and Hispanic student subgroups, as well as its special education and economically disadvantaged students, perform below average compared to their peers statewide. The school's four-year graduation rate is around 91-96%, on par with the district and state, but its chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the district and state averages.
