The school is part of the Parsippany-Troy Hills Township School District, which is ranked 111 out of 609 districts in New Jersey and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Littleton Elementary School has a strong performance history, consistently ranking in the top 10-15% of New Jersey elementary schools in recent years. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school ranked 138 out of 1,347 New Jersey elementary schools and received a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students outperform state and district averages in NJSLA/PARCC assessments for English Language Arts and Mathematics across grades 3-5, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the state averages. Additionally, the school's performance in 5th grade Science is also strong, with a 59.3% proficiency rate compared to the state average of 30.1%.

While Littleton Elementary School performs exceptionally well for male and English Language Learner (ELL) students, the school's relatively lower performance for Hispanic and Special Education students is an area that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions. Additionally, the school's fluctuating chronic absenteeism rate, which is generally higher than the state average, is an area of concern that the school and district should address. Overall, Littleton Elementary School is a high-performing school that consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in New Jersey, but it should continue to focus on addressing subgroup disparities and improving attendance to ensure equitable outcomes for all students.
