With 579 students, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the state and district averages.

Wyalusing Valley's proficiency rates in PSSA Math (34.8%) and PSSA English Language Arts (53.3%) for the 2024-2025 school year were lower than the state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%, respectively. Compared to nearby schools, such as Tunkhannock High School, Wyalusing Valley's performance is also lower.

This is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby schools, which have free/reduced-lunch rates ranging from 47.85% to 100%. The school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio are generally in line with the regional averages, but the socioeconomic factors affecting its student population may be influencing the school's academic performance.
