Summary:

Greenfield is a five-school district serving roughly 1,283 students across three elementary schools (grades K–4), one middle school (grades 5–7), and one high school (grades 8–12). As a whole, the Greenfield district ranks 336 out of 351 statewide — the 4th percentile — with 0 stars, and every school scores below the state average in the all-grade subjects shown.

Within that district picture, results vary widely. Greenfield Middle is the strongest current performer: 26th percentile in 2025–2026, above the district in ELA (27.72% vs 22.53%), Math (21.28% vs 19.00%), and Science (30.48% vs 23.65%), and it posted the highest single proficiency figure in the data set, 36.45% in Science in 2024–2025. Federal Street School leads the elementary schools, with 29.11% proficient in Math — the top all-grade Math score in the district — and 27.85% in ELA, and its rank percentile rose from 17 to 19 to 24 over three years. Discovery School at Four Corners is volatile: it had the highest all-grade Math score in 2024–2025 at 33.33% but fell 8.89 points to 24.44%, and its percentile dropped from 25th to 14th. Newton School is the clearest concern, at the 1st percentile with 0 stars, the lowest ELA (8.62%) and Math (10.34%) scores, and just 4% proficient in 4th-grade ELA.

Greenfield High is mixed: its graduation rate (87.6% vs 85.7%) and dropout rate (6.7% vs 7.7%) beat the district, and 10th-grade Math (23.21%) is above district, but 10th-grade Science is only 2.04% proficient. Spending and class-size patterns are worth noting but not conclusive — Federal Street has the highest per-student spending ($18,886) and Newton the lowest ($16,572), while Discovery has the smallest classes at 10.0 students per teacher.
