Summary

Harris Elementary School is a K–4 school in Greenfield, Indiana, serving 273 students as part of Greenfield-Central Com Schools; in 2025–2026 it ranked 482nd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools (53rd percentile, 3 stars), while its district ranked 116th of 374 (69th percentile, 3 stars).

Academics are mixed. Math is the relative strength: All Grades Math proficiency is 54.95%, 12.13 points above the district's 42.82%, and 3rd grade math is 63.46%, above the state's 51.9%. But that advantage is not consistent — 4th grade math is 47.46%, below both the district (52.67%) and the state (52%). English language arts is the clearest weak spot: All Grades ELA is 36.04%, below the district's 38.47%, with 3rd grade at 38.46% and 4th grade at 33.9%, versus the state's 40.8% and 42.2%. Science is 42.37%, below the district's 48.12%. Among same-district schools, Eden Elementary School posts much higher results (ELA 66.25%, Math 73.75%), while JB Stephens Elementary School and Weston Elementary School are closer to Harris. Nearby, New Palestine Elementary School and Brandywine Elementary School outperform Harris in all three subjects.

Important context: 58.61% of Harris students were eligible for free/reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025 — the highest among all comparison schools, most of which fall between 22% and 45%. Chronic absenteeism was 9.9%, better than the district's 12.6% and the state's 16.7%, though higher than most nearby schools. Harris spent $14,047 per student in 2023–2024, the most among nearby schools and up 33.5% over three years, with a comparatively low student–teacher ratio of 13.2. Historically, Harris was in the top quartile in 2004–2005 (74th percentile) before falling to the bottom quartile by 2008–2009 (27th), and has since recovered to the middle of the state's schools.
