Summary:
Vista Verde Middle is the only middle school listed in Greenfield Union Elementary, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 727 students. Its 2025–26 proficiency was 24% in English language arts (ELA), 15% in math and 9% in science. The most important finding is that the school was well below California in every subject, by 25 percentage points in ELA, 23 in math and 27 in science.
There are no other listed schools to compare as local leaders or trailers; within the school, ELA had the highest proficiency and science the lowest. The statewide comparisons show the same broad challenge across subjects, while the district gaps were smaller: Vista Verde was below the district by 2 points in ELA, 4 in math and 3 in science. SchoolDigger ranked Vista Verde 2,441 of 2,703 California schools, at the 10th percentile, and 902 of 968 district schools, at the 7th percentile. In the supplied grade-specific results, grades 7 and 8 were slightly above the district in ELA and math, and grade 8 was slightly above in science; each advantage was less than a quarter point.
Results improved from 2024–25 to 2025–26 in all three subjects: ELA and math each rose by about 5 percentage points, while science increased by about 1. Because California’s gains were smaller in ELA and math, those gaps narrowed by about 4 points each; the science gap widened by about 2 points. Vista Verde’s student–teacher ratio was 21.2 in 2024–25, and 81% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. Chronic absenteeism was 14% in 2025–26, compared with 11% districtwide and 18% statewide. Since only one school is listed, these figures describe Vista Verde rather than a range of schools across the area.
