Academically, Kingston Springs Elementary School outperforms both its district and the state in every subject. In the 2025–2026 school year, 69.7% of students were proficient in math, 60.6% in English language arts, and 62.9% in science, compared to state averages of 43.0%, 40.6%, and 46.9% respectively.

One interesting pattern is that the school's scores dipped slightly from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, with math falling from 75.8% to 69.7% and ELA from 68.3% to 60.6%, yet the school remains comfortably above state averages. The exceptional 4th grade math results may reflect a particularly strong cohort or cumulative learning gains. The school's low chronic absenteeism rate likely supports its academic success, and since it serves only grades K–4, these results provide a useful baseline for anticipating future middle school performance. While socioeconomic data and student–teacher ratios were not reported, the consistent top-tier rankings make Kingston Springs Elementary School a clear standout in zip code 37082.
