Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $9,702 to $13,542 over the past few years, Ullom J M Elementary School has consistently struggled academically. Its proficiency rates in mathematics and reading for all grades were 29% and 36.6%, respectively, in the 2024-2025 school year, significantly below the state averages of 35.4% and 45.6%.

The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with relatively better rankings for English Language Learners and Special Education students, but struggling with other subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and Low Socioeconomic Status students.
