The school is part of the Eagle Mt-Saginaw Independent School District, which is ranked 563 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Chisholm Ridge has a relatively diverse student population, with a mix of White (24-34%), African American (18-23%), Hispanic (29-30%), and Asian (13-17%) students. However, the school struggles with the performance of certain student subgroups, particularly Asian, African American, and White students, who rank in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools in these categories. Chisholm Ridge's test scores on the STAAR assessments are generally below the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics, with only 33.02% of 3rd graders, 20.79% of 4th graders, and 38.74% of 5th graders proficient or better in STAAR Mathematics, compared to the district averages of 35.57%, 36.72%, and 42.08%, respectively. The school has also seen a steady increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 47.8% in 2020-2021 to 59.44% in 2022-2023, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
When comparing Chisholm Ridge to other nearby schools, such as Sunset Valley Elementary and Copper Creek Elementary, both in the Keller Independent School District, Chisholm Ridge generally underperforms. The school's performance has also declined over the past several years, as evidenced by its drop in statewide rankings from the 1,800s in 2016-2017 to the 2,700s in 2022-2023. While the school's student-teacher ratio has remained relatively stable, its per-student spending has increased, suggesting that additional resources may not be translating into improved academic outcomes.
