Despite its small size, Columbus Crossing High School consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in Texas, with proficiency rates on STAAR end-of-course exams significantly below the district and state averages. The school has a very high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 82.35% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the school serves a high proportion of "at-risk" students, ranking in the bottom 1% of Texas high schools for this student group in 2020-2021. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated significantly, ranging from a low of 63.6% to a high of 100% in recent years.
