Summary

Green Acres Middle is a public school serving 761 students in grades 6-8 within the Visalia Unified School District, currently performing slightly above the state average with a 3-star rating.

The school has notable strengths, including outperforming its district in English Language Arts and demonstrating exceptional support for English Language Learner and homeless students. It also maintains a lower chronic absenteeism rate than both the district and state averages. However, proficiency in mathematics and science lags behind state averages, and there is a significant performance drop in 8th grade, particularly in math. Compared to nearby schools, Green Acres shows more stable performance over time than peers like Divisadero Middle and Valley Oak Middle, though it trails the higher-performing Ridgeview Middle.

While per-student spending has increased significantly in recent years, academic results have not shown a corresponding jump, indicating resources may be focused on specific areas like student support services. The school has recovered well from pandemic-era attendance challenges and generally outperforms schools with similar student demographics in neighboring districts like Tulare City and Farmersville Unified.
