The school is part of the Perrin-Whitt Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 271 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Perrin Elementary stands out for its higher percentage of White students (76.61%) compared to nearby schools like Millsap Elementary and Peaster Elementary. The school also has a higher percentage of Hispanic students (19.3%) than the nearby schools. In terms of test scores, Perrin Elementary's 6th grade reading proficiency rate of 58% is higher than the state average of 50%, and its 5th grade science proficiency rate of 44% is also above the state average of 34%. The school's Hispanic, special education, and low-income students perform well compared to their peers statewide.

However, Perrin Elementary's overall statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, with a high ranking of 1,054 out of 4,286 Texas elementary schools in 2015-2016 and a low ranking of 2,545 out of 4,479 in 2018-2019. The school's current ranking of 2,030 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023 is a concern. Additionally, there is a notable gender performance gap, with female students consistently outperforming their male counterparts. The school could focus on improving its performance in 3rd and 4th grade reading and math, as well as 5th grade science, where proficiency rates are below state averages.
