The school is part of the Upper Darby School District, which is ranked 519 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $13,521 to $16,378 over the past few years, Beverly Hills Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom half of Pennsylvania middle schools, with a ranking between 651-757 out of 835-893 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) tests is significantly below the state and district averages, with only 9.5% of students proficient or better in PSSA Math and 22.7% proficient or better in PSSA English Language Arts in the 2024-2025 school year.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Paxon Hollow Middle School and Haverford Middle School, which are part of the Marple Newtown and Haverford Township school districts, respectively, Beverly Hills Middle School significantly underperforms academically. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.6 to 15.8, is relatively high compared to some of the higher-performing nearby schools, which may be a contributing factor to the school's academic struggles.
