Margaret W Cuyler Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools over the past 10 years, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math ranging from 15-50% across different grade levels and years. The school's performance on science assessments is particularly low, with only 30.61% of 5th-grade students proficient in 2024-2025. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, around 50% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may be a contributing factor to these academic challenges.

However, some schools in the region, like A.A. Gates Elementary School and Weedsport Elementary School, have higher academic performance and better rankings compared to Margaret W Cuyler Elementary School, suggesting potential opportunities for learning and improvement.
