The school has consistently ranked in the top 50% of New York high schools over the past 10 years, with strong performance on Regents exams in subjects like Common Core Algebra II, Common Core English Language Arts, and Earth Science. However, the school struggles in areas like Algebra I and Special Education, ranking in the bottom 30% of New York high schools.

Catskill Senior High School generally outperforms nearby schools like Greenville High School, Taconic Hills Junior/Senior High School, and Cairo-Durham High School on academic metrics, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Red Hook Senior High School and Saugerties Senior High School.

Catskill Senior High School spends around $21,000-$35,000 per student, which is higher than the state average but lower than some of the higher-performing nearby schools. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10-11, which is better than the state average and many of the nearby schools.
