Collettsville School does not appear to be a standout school in the region, with inconsistent academic performance across different subjects and grade levels. While the school excels in some areas, such as 4th grade math and 5th/8th grade science, it struggles in others, such as 3rd grade reading and 7th grade math. Additionally, a significant portion of the school's students (67.66%) receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite these challenges, Collettsville School does have some areas of strength, such as its higher-than-average test scores in certain subjects and grade levels. With targeted interventions and a focus on addressing the school's areas of weakness, there may be opportunities for the school to improve its overall performance and better serve its students. However, the school's relatively low district and state rankings suggest the need for a closer examination of the school's strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement.
