Over the past decade, Andrews High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools, typically between 800-1100 out of around 1,800 schools. Its academic performance, as measured by STAAR End-of-Course exams, has been mixed, with the school performing better in subjects like Biology and U.S. History but struggling in Algebra I and English I/II Reading. The school's graduation rates have remained relatively high, ranging from 91.2% to 99.6% in recent years, and dropout rates have been low, typically between 0.2% and 1.0%.

Interestingly, Andrews Education Center, the only other high school in the Andrews Independent School District, serves a much smaller student population of 47 and has consistently performed worse than Andrews High School on STAAR exams, with a lower SchoolDigger rating of 0-1 stars. Additionally, Andrews High School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with multi-racial students performing exceptionally well, while English Language Learners, Special Education students, and Low Socioeconomic Status students have struggled, ranking in the bottom quarter of Texas high schools. This suggests the school may need to focus on addressing the needs of these underperforming subgroups to improve overall student learning outcomes.
