Within the district, a few schools stand out. Circle Greenwich Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with exceptional test scores and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Circle Benton Elementary is another high-performing elementary school, with a 4-star rating and strong test scores. While not the highest-performing, Circle High School stands out as the only high school in the data set, with a statewide ranking of 195th out of 318 high schools and a 2-star rating.

The data reveals significant performance gaps within the district, with some schools, such as Circle Towanda Elementary, struggling academically. This suggests a need to address the factors contributing to these disparities, which may include socioeconomic status, as evidenced by the correlation between free/reduced lunch rates and academic performance. Additionally, the data shows that higher per-student spending does not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes, indicating that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving educational quality across the district.
