Academically, Afton Junior/Senior High School consistently ranks in the bottom half of New York high schools, with proficiency rates on state assessments and Regents exams below the state averages. The school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated, ranging from 78.9% to 93.4% in recent years, and its dropout rates have also been variable, ranging from 2.0% to 13.1%. Additionally, the school has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 38.0%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Chenango Valley High School, Chenango Forks High School, and Greene High School, which all rank in the top 400 New York high schools, Afton Junior/Senior High School performs significantly worse.
