May High School has consistently maintained high graduation rates, with a 95.2% four-year graduation rate in the 2022-2023 school year, which is above the state average. The school also has very low dropout rates, with a 0.0% dropout rate in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly lower than the state average. However, the school's test scores are mixed compared to the state averages, performing well in some subjects like English I Reading and English II Reading, but struggling in others like Mathematics and U.S. History. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with male students and Hispanic students tending to perform better than female students and low socioeconomic status students.

When compared to nearby schools, May High School generally performs better than Lone Star H S West, which is ranked among the lowest in the state, but lags behind schools like Comanche High School and Early High School, which have higher rankings and better academic performance. The school's declining statewide ranking suggests the need for a closer examination of its curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to ensure that all students are receiving the resources and support they need to succeed.
