While Spruce Mountain High School stands out as the strongest performer, with a 5-star rating and higher proficiency in English Language Arts, the other schools in the area face challenges in academic achievement and student engagement.

Spruce Mountain Middle School has maintained a consistent 2-star rating, but its lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to the other schools suggests a more engaged student body.
