Summary:
Griffin Academy High District has one school, Griffin Academy High, serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 186 students. The clearest concern is chronic absenteeism: in 2025–2026, 51% of students were chronically absent, compared with 18% statewide—a 32-point gap.
There is no school-to-school leader or trailer to name because the district has just one school. Against state results, the school’s strongest all-grades subject was science, at 33% compared with 36% statewide, or 3 points lower; its largest shortfall was mathematics, at 24% versus 38%, or 14 points lower. ELA was 44% versus 49%, a 5-point gap. For grade 11, the largest shortfall was instead in ELA: 44% compared with 57%, or 14 points lower. Graduation was slightly higher than the state rate (89% versus 88%), while dropout was slightly lower (8.1% versus 8.3%).
Test results moved in an unfavorable direction relative to the state in all three subjects: ELA went from 14 points above the state in 2024–2025 to 5 points below in 2025–2026; the mathematics gap widened by 3 points, and the science gap shifted by 7 points from above to below. SchoolDigger’s percentile rose from 61 in 2023–2024 to 70 in 2024–2025, then fell to 50 in 2025–2026. As context, the school’s student-teacher ratio was 18.8 in 2024–2025, and 72% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. These figures describe the school, but do not explain its results.
