With 907 students, the school has consistently been ranked in the bottom 25% of Clear Run Intrmd School over the past 10 years, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with over 99% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years.

Academically, Clear Run Intrmd School significantly underperforms the state and district averages in both math and English language arts proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 32.3% of students were proficient or better in math compared to 41.7% statewide, and only 28.1% were proficient or better in English language arts compared to 48.5% statewide.

When comparing Clear Run Intrmd School to other nearby schools in the Pocono Mountain School District, it becomes clear that the district as a whole struggles with academic performance. Both Tobyhanna Elementary Center and Swiftwater Elementary Center, which serve younger grades, also perform below the state average in math and English language arts. While the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be a significant factor contributing to the school's poor academic performance, the relatively strong performance of Clear Run Intrmd School for certain student subgroups suggests that the school may have effective strategies in place to support these populations.
