The district as a whole is highly ranked, placing in the top 20% of districts in New York, with North Salem Central School District earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

North Salem Middle School/High School stands out as the top performer in the district, consistently ranking among the top 50 high schools in New York state over the past three years and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores, particularly in Regents exams, are significantly higher than the state averages, indicating strong academic performance. In contrast, Pequenakonck Elementary School, while still performing well, has a lower statewide ranking with a 4-star rating.

The district appears to be investing heavily in its educational system, with both schools having relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratios. This investment may be contributing to the strong academic performance, though the significant differences in test scores, graduation rates, and other metrics between the middle/high school and the elementary school suggest the district may be focusing more resources and attention on the secondary level.
