Gonzalo And Sofia Garcia Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 1228 out of 4329 Texas elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 3114 out of 4578 in 2020-2021. The school's performance on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests has been mixed compared to the Canutillo ISD and Texas state averages, with projected proficiency rates in Reading and Mathematics mostly below the district and state averages in the coming years. Nearby schools within the Canutillo ISD, such as Bill Childress Elementary and Canutillo Elementary, generally perform better on STAAR tests, while the Congressman Silvestre & Carolina School stands out with significantly higher proficiency rates.

Gonzalo And Sofia Garcia Elementary has a high percentage of Hispanic students (over 90%) and a significant population of English Language Learners (ELL) and economically disadvantaged students. The school's performance on STAAR tests for these subgroups has been generally lower than the state averages. The school's per-student spending has increased over the years, and the student-teacher ratio has improved, but the overall academic performance still lags behind the district and state averages, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and a closer examination of the school's resource allocation and instructional practices.
