Among the standout schools in the district, Frontier Senior High School stands out with its strong performance on Regents exams, high graduation rate of 84.3%, and low dropout rate of 4.5%. Frontier Middle School also impresses with its high proficiency rates on 8th grade NY State Assessments, particularly in Math and Science. At the elementary level, Pinehurst Elementary School stands out with its exceptional performance on NY State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math.

The district as a whole invests significantly in its students, with the high school spending nearly $23,000 per student, the highest in the district. All schools maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios, ranging from 11:1 to 13.3:1, which may contribute to the generally strong academic performance across the district. However, the elementary schools show more variability in performance, with some grades and subjects performing well above state averages, while others lag behind, potentially due to the wide range of free/reduced lunch rates among the elementary schools.
