Within the district, a few schools stand out. Edison Elementary School has the highest performance on standardized tests, with 36.5% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 25.4% proficient or better in Mathematics. Home Elementary School also performs well, with 35.3% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 21.7% in Mathematics. In contrast, the district as a whole lags behind state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency.

The data also reveals that all schools in the district have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.37% to 78.06%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Additionally, the district faces high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.5% at Home Elementary to 40.8% at Costello School, which are well above the state average. Despite the relatively high spending per student, the academic outcomes do not reflect this level of investment, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be at play.
