Academically, Dalton-Nunda Elementary School has consistently low performance compared to the state average. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 41.03% of 3rd graders and 32% of 4th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 54.15% and 54.07%, respectively. In math, the proficiency rates were 41.03% for 3rd grade and 24% for 4th grade, compared to the state averages of 59.7% and 58.64%. The school's performance is particularly low for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the bottom 20% of New York elementary schools for this subgroup.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $15,657 to $30,853 over the past few years, and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 7.2 to 8.0, its academic performance remains low compared to nearby schools such as York Central Elementary, Wyoming Central School, Wayland Elementary, and Geneseo Elementary, which tend to have higher proficiency rates and statewide rankings. This suggests that factors other than funding, such as curriculum, instruction, and school leadership, may need to be addressed to improve the school's academic performance.
