Guggenheim Elementary School has consistently strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math across grades 3-5. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rates ranged from 60.94% (3rd grade) to 79.25% (4th grade), while Math proficiency rates ranged from 77.78% (5th grade) to 87.93% (4th grade). These scores are generally higher than the district and state averages. The school's performance across different student subgroups is also noteworthy, with the school ranking in the top 15% of New York elementary schools for White students in recent years.

While Guggenheim Elementary School's performance is excellent compared to the state and district, it faces competition from some of the top-performing schools in the broader region, such as Glenwood Landing Elementary, E.M. Baker School, and Munsey Park Elementary. However, Guggenheim's strong academic outcomes, access to resources, and low student-teacher ratio suggest it is a high-quality option for families in the Port Washington area.
