Wellsville Secondary School stands out as the stronger of the two, ranking 454 out of 1,228 New York high schools and earning a 3-star rating. The school boasts a relatively high graduation rate of 84.3% and outperforms the district and state averages in several Regents exam subjects, including Common Core English Language Arts, Common Core Algebra II, and Geometry. In contrast, Wellsville Elementary School is ranked 1,685 out of 2,439 New York elementary schools and has a 2-star rating, performing below the state average in English Language Arts and Math proficiency across grades 3-5.

Both schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced lunch rates exceeding 40%. However, the elementary school spends more per student ($29,141) compared to the secondary school ($28,102), and both schools maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios, suggesting a focus on individualized attention. While the secondary school's Regents exam performance is a strength, the district as a whole faces challenges in improving overall academic achievement and student outcomes.
