For 2025–2026, the school ranks 110th of 346 elementary schools in New Mexico — the 68th percentile with 3 stars. That is its highest percentile in the recent history available: it was at the 59th percentile in 2024–2025, 66th in 2023–2024, and in the 40s in 2018–2019.

Language Arts sits at 49.74%, essentially at the district average of 49.63% and about 6.4 points above the state's 43.34%. Results vary by grade: 3rd and 6th grade ELA are strong (59.46% and 60%), as are 5th and 6th grade math (47.06% and 46%), but 4th grade falls below district averages in both subjects, and 5th grade ELA (35.29%) is a clear weak spot. Subgroup rankings are relatively strong for male students (71st percentile) and low-SES students (68th percentile).

Compared with nearby schools, Jose Barrios Elementary ranks higher overall (78th percentile, 4 stars) on the strength of ELA and science, but its math proficiency (37.50%) is slightly below G.W. Stout's. Harrison Schmitt Elementary is similar in size and grade span, but its math is far lower at 22.34%. Hurley Elementary in the Cobre Consolidated Schools is the local standout — 95th percentile, 5 stars, with much higher ELA. G.W. Stout's student-teacher ratio of 15.2 is the highest among these nearby schools, and its free/reduced lunch rate of 99.7% reflects a high-poverty student context.
