Minisink Valley Middle School generally performs better than the district and state averages on New York State Assessments, with 69.47% of 7th graders proficient or better in Math in 2024-2025, compared to 69.11% for the district and 56.47% for the state.

However, the school's statewide ranking has declined from 397 out of 1,429 middle schools in 2015-2016 to 759 out of 1,500 in 2024-2025, indicating a potential need for improvement.
