Johnsonville High has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from a high of 35th out of 223 schools in 2016-2017 to 120th out of 235 schools in the most recent 2024-2025 school year. The school's performance on end-of-course (EOCEP) exams is mixed, with strong results in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 (80.7% proficient or better in 2024-2025) but lower performance in English 1 (52.28% proficient or better in 2024-2025). Compared to the district and state averages, Johnsonville High performs better in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 but lags behind in English 1 and English 2. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated, ranging from 78.8% to 85.4% in recent years, and its dropout rate has also varied, from a low of 2.0% to a high of 5.2%.

Johnsonville High has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Additionally, Johnsonville High has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 18.1% to 24.7% in recent years. While the school performs better than some nearby schools, such as J. Paul Truluck Creative Arts and Science Magnet and Lake City High, on EOCEP exams in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 and English 2, it lags behind the higher-performing Aynor High, which is ranked 23rd out of 235 schools in the state.
