Its academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on the OSAS assessments, is generally below the state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The school's four-year graduation rates have been inconsistent, ranging from 81.3% to 88.0% over the past few years, which is generally lower than the state average.

However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student groups. While Gervais High School's White students and English Language Learners perform relatively well, with rankings in the top 35% and top 3% of Oregon high schools, respectively, other groups like Hispanic students, Special Education students, and Low Socio-Economic Status students perform much worse, with rankings in the bottom 40-60% of schools. This disparity in performance among student groups suggests that the school may need to focus on addressing these disparities and providing more equitable educational opportunities. Additionally, the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $20,593 to $21,562 over the past two years, suggests that the school may need to examine how its resources are being utilized and explore ways to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its educational programs.
