Summary:
Greenfield has six schools spanning kindergarten through grade 12: four elementary schools serving K–6, one middle school serving grades 6–8 and one high school serving grades 9–12. The most important finding is that every school’s 2025–26 all-grades proficiency was below California’s rate in ELA, math and science; across the six schools, averages were 30% in ELA, 19% in math and 15% in science, compared with 49%, 38% and 36% statewide.
The leaders differ by subject. Greenfield High had the group’s highest ELA result at 45%, while Mary Chapa Academy had the lowest at 22—a 24-point spread. In math, Cesar Chavez Elementary led at 26%, and Greenfield High was lowest at 12. In science, Mary Chapa led at 20%, while Vista Verde Middle was lowest at 9. Cesar Chavez also led elementary schools in ELA in grades 3–6 and in math in grades 5–6; Oak Avenue Elementary led elementary math in grades 3 and 4. Greenfield High’s strong ELA result contrasts with its lowest-in-group math score, though its graduation rate was 95%, versus 88% statewide.
Across the six schools, the gap from California widened between 2024–25 and 2025–26 by about 1 point in ELA, 1 point in math and 4 points in science, even as individual schools made gains—for example, Cesar Chavez ELA rose 8 points and Mary Chapa science rose 9. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranking for Cesar Chavez improved from 13 to 30; Greenfield High’s fell from 45 to 32. The elementary schools have similar student–teacher ratios, from 22.1 to 22.8. The reported free/reduced lunch eligible measure for school year 2024–25 ranged from 70% at Cesar Chavez to 90% at Mary Chapa; these figures are context, not an explanation for school results.
