The Wellsville Central School District has only one elementary school, Wellsville Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 1349 out of 2434 New York elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1685 out of 2439 in 2022-2023.
Wellsville Elementary School's performance on state assessments is generally below the state average, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA), where proficiency rates ranged from 29.87% (4th grade) to 34.55% (5th grade) in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 42.6% (3rd grade), 47.05% (4th grade), and 43.68% (5th grade). However, the school's math proficiency rates were closer to the state average, ranging from 46.75% (4th grade) to 49.37% (3rd grade), compared to the state average of 53.93% (3rd grade), 58.03% (4th grade), and 48.93% (5th grade).

The school serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, with 50.21% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. The district's overall ranking is 560 out of 865 in New York, and it is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggesting that the district as a whole may be facing challenges that could be impacting the performance of Wellsville Elementary School. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 9.9 could be a positive factor, as it may allow for more individualized attention and support for students.
