Harrison/Jefferson/Madison Elementary has consistently performed well on STAAR tests, with proficiency rates often exceeding the district and state averages.

The school has also shown strong performance across different student subgroups, with its male students ranking 675 out of 4,585 Texas elementary schools in STAAR Reading and its female students ranking 1,053 out of 4,588 in 2022-2023.

However, the school's special education students have consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools on STAAR assessments, and its Gifted and Talented program may warrant further attention and improvement, as its students have only ranked in the middle third of Texas elementary schools in recent years.
