The school's performance on English Reading assessments is slightly better, but still below the district and state averages.

Kegotank Elementary also faces other challenges, such as a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 103.97% for the 2022-2023 school year, suggesting a predominantly low-income student population. Additionally, the school's spending per student for the 2020-2021 school year was $8,406, which is below the national average of around $12,000 per student. Despite these challenges, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6 to 1, which is slightly lower than the national average of around 16 to 1.
