Greenfield-Central Com Schools

Greenfield-Central Com Schools is an Indiana district serving roughly 4,370 students across 8 schools: four elementary schools (PK/K–4), three middle-grade schools (two grades 5–6 intermediates and one grades 7–8 junior high), and one high school, with no alternative school in this data. The district is ranked 116 of 374 in Indiana, at the 69th percentile with 3 stars. Enrollment is heavily concentrated: Greenfield-Central High School enrolls 1,413 students, nearly a third of the district, while Eden Elementary School is the smallest at 152.

Eden Elementary School is the district's clear standout — the only school here with a 5-star rating and a 91st-percentile rank (93 of 1,015). Its all-grade proficiency is far above district levels in ELA (66.25 vs 38.47) and Math (73.75 vs 42.82), and it has the lowest FRL rate (27.63%) and lowest student-teacher ratio (12.9), though its small size can magnify swings. Among the 5–6 schools, Maxwell Intermediate School outperforms Greenfield Intermediate School in every subject while spending less per student. Weston Elementary School has the district's lowest chronic absenteeism (6.2%) with strong math and science, but the weakest all-grade ELA (31.93).

The main pressure point is middle school. Greenfield Central Junior High School posts all-grade Math of 26.95 against the district's 42.82 and has slipped to the 43rd percentile and 2 stars, despite a striking Biology result of 98.0 that likely reflects a small group of test-takers. The high school is stable — graduation 91.4% and SAT EBRW 53.01, both above state — but SAT Math remains low at 23.21 versus the state's 25.6. District chronic absenteeism of 12.6% beats the state's 16.7%, and every school here is below that state rate.
