Summary

Greenfield High is a public high school located in Greenfield, MA, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 448 students. The school is part of the Greenfield District, which is ranked 323 out of 348 districts in Massachusetts and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenfield High consistently ranks in the bottom third of Massachusetts high schools, with a ranking between 215-312 out of 285-351 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on MCAS Next Generation assessments is significantly below the state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 22.58% of 10th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 50.66%. Greenfield High's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 73.9% to 86.4% over the past five years, which is lower than the state average, and the school's dropout rate has been consistently high, ranging from 10.2% to 15.2% during the same period, significantly above the state average.

The nearby schools, such as Hopkins Academy, Smith Academy, and Amherst Regional High, consistently outperform Greenfield High on academic measures, with higher rankings, graduation rates, and MCAS proficiency levels. These schools also have lower student-teacher ratios and, in some cases, higher per-student spending, suggesting that resource allocation and class sizes may be contributing factors to their stronger academic performance.
