At the elementary level, AkronFairgrove Elementary School has 173 students, with a student population that is predominantly white (91.33%) and small percentages of Hispanic (5.78%) and two or more races (2.31%). The school outperforms the state average in M-Step/English Language Arts, M-Step/Math, and M-Step/Science assessments, indicating that it is providing a high-quality education for its students. However, the school does have a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.9%, which is an area the district may want to address.

At the secondary level, AkronFairgrove Jr-Sr High School has 167 students, with a student population that is also predominantly white (86.23%), but with slightly higher percentages of Hispanic (8.38%) and two or more races (4.79%) compared to the elementary school.

Additionally, the high school has a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 29.1%, which is significantly higher than the elementary school. However, the high school does have a 100% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, indicating that it is successfully supporting its students through to graduation.
