Neabsco Elementary has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking over the past few years, moving from the bottom 10% of Virginia elementary schools in 2015-2016 to the top 40% in 2024-2025. The school's performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests is generally on par with or exceeds the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics and English reading. Neabsco Elementary has also demonstrated strong performance among specific student subgroups, such as African American students, Hispanic students, and English Language Learners, ranking in the top 15% of Virginia elementary schools for these groups.

However, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.1% in 2023-2024 to 19.3% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, Neabsco Elementary has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 84.04% to 90.32% over the past few years, indicating a high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. While the school's performance is generally on par with or exceeds that of nearby schools, such as Mary Williams Elementary and Montclair Elementary, it lags behind the high-performing Mary G. Porter Traditional School.
