The Mt. Holly School is a high-performing institution, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Vermont. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school placed 17th out of 137 schools, and in the 2023-2024 school year, it ranked 11th out of 133 schools. The school's test scores also significantly exceed the statewide averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science for 5th and 6th grade students. Additionally, the school has a very low student-teacher ratio of 9.6 to 1, providing students with more individualized attention and support.

The Mt. Holly School's strong academic performance is further supported by its financial resources, with per-student spending of $11,820 for the 2018-2019 school year, higher than the state average. Despite having a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families (57.28% free/reduced lunch rate), the school is still able to achieve excellent academic outcomes, suggesting a commitment to equity and supporting all students. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% in the 2022-2023 school year indicates an area for potential improvement in student engagement and attendance.
