As part of the Frisco Independent School District, which is ranked 31st out of 961 school districts in Texas, Norris Elementary has consistently maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks among the top elementary schools in the state.

Norris Elementary's academic performance is exceptional, with students consistently outperforming the state and district averages in STAAR test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 5th-grade reading proficiency rate was 91.54%, compared to 81.74% for the Frisco ISD and 57.83% for the state.

While Norris Elementary serves a relatively affluent student population, with a very low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the nearby Sonntag Elementary, Mooneyham Elementary, and Gunstream Elementary have higher percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. This suggests that Norris Elementary may serve a more homogeneous student population compared to its neighboring schools, though the school's exceptional academic performance remains a standout within the Frisco ISD.
