J E Lanigan School consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of New York elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math on the New York State Assessments are significantly lower than the state and district averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in ELA ranged from 16.67% to 41.94% across grades 3-6, compared to the state averages of 50.86% to 56.61%. In Math, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 16.67% to 43.55%, compared to the state averages of 51.2% to 59.7%.

However, some schools outside the Fulton City School District, such as Charles E. Riley Elementary School in the Oswego City School District and the schools in the Baldwinsville Central School District, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates often exceeding the state averages.
