The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, currently sitting at 383 out of 906 Missouri elementary schools with a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Midway Elementary's academic performance is mixed, with strengths in 5th grade math where the proficiency rate (57.1%) exceeds the state average (38.4%), but weaknesses in 3rd grade math (35.2% vs. state average of 40.8%) and 6th grade ELA (30.9% vs. state average of 37.6%).

Overall, Midway Elementary faces a mix of academic strengths and weaknesses, as well as socioeconomic challenges that may require targeted interventions and resource allocation to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed. The school's performance data suggests the need for a closer examination of curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to address the disparities observed across grade levels and subject areas.
