The school's test scores are generally below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and U.S. History, with some exceptions, such as the school's 11th-grade students scoring higher than the state average in Science in 2024-2025.

However, the school's low socioeconomic status students have performed better, ranking 17th out of 380 Oklahoma high schools in 2022-2023. To improve the school's overall performance, the district and school leadership may need to focus on addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism, implementing targeted academic interventions, and exploring ways to better support the needs of the school's economically disadvantaged student population.
