Minerva High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio high schools, ranking between 440-508 out of 855-867 schools over the past 10 years, and has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger during this time. The school's four-year graduation rate has been relatively stable, ranging from 94.0% to 95.8% in recent years, but it has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.6% to 43.9%. Minerva High School's test scores on the Ohio State Tests are generally below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 40.6% to 69.7% across different subject areas and years.

Compared to nearby high schools, such as Marlington High School, West Branch High School, and Louisville High School, Minerva High School's performance is generally lower, with higher statewide rankings, graduation rates, and test scores. Minerva High School's spending per student ($8,061 in 2018-2019) is also lower than the state average and some of the nearby schools, which may impact the resources and support available to students.
