The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #9, which is ranked 750 out of 874 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high spending of $42,781 per student, Junior High School 22 Jordan L Mott consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of New York middle schools, with a ranking between 1300-1400 out of around 1500 schools.

While the nearby schools in the same district, such as Kappa, Is 219 New Venture School, and Bronx Writing Academy, also perform poorly on state assessments, some schools like Science And Technology Academy: A Mott Hall School and Mott Hall Charter School, which are slightly farther away, perform significantly better, ranking in the top 30% and top 50% of New York middle schools, respectively.
