The Upper Perkiomen 4th and 5th Grade Center consistently performs above the state average in PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) tests for Math and English Language Arts (ELA), with proficiency rates of 61.9% in Math and 55.6% in ELA, compared to the state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%, respectively.

However, when compared to schools in neighboring districts, such as Salford Hills Elementary in the Souderton Area School District, the 4th and 5th Grade Center lags behind in overall academic performance. The school's high spending per student and improved student-teacher ratio indicate a commitment to providing a quality educational experience, but it would be interesting to analyze how this increased spending is being utilized and whether it is directly translating into improved academic outcomes for all student groups, including those with disabilities.
