However, reading is a significant weakness, with only 39.68% of students proficient, which is nearly 15 points below the state average of 54.20%. The school also shows notable volatility in math scores from year to year, likely due to its small class sizes.

The school's state ranking has fluctuated, landing in the 49th percentile (2 stars) for 2025-2026.
The school operates with a very low student-teacher ratio of 9.5:1 and high per-student spending of $14,625, which typically suggests small classes and individualized attention. Despite this investment, overall academic returns are mixed, particularly in reading. The school serves a high-poverty community, with over 76% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This context makes the strong math performance and science outlier especially noteworthy, demonstrating that academic success is achievable in certain subjects despite socioeconomic challenges.
