Summary

Green Meadows Elementary is a public elementary school in Hampden, Massachusetts, serving 276 students in grades PK-8 as part of the Hampden-Wilbraham School District. The school has consistently ranked in the top 50% of Massachusetts elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 326 out of 906 schools.

Green Meadows Elementary's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly above the district average, but below the state average in most subject areas and grade levels. However, the school stands out for its strong performance in 5th grade MCAS assessments, where proficiency rates exceed the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, the school's low-income students perform particularly well, ranking in the top 13% of Massachusetts elementary schools in this subgroup.

Compared to nearby schools, Green Meadows Elementary generally outperforms schools in the Springfield district, but lags behind some of the higher-performing schools in the East Longmeadow district, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. While the school maintains a consistent 3-star rating and effectively supports its diverse student population, there may be opportunities to further improve academic outcomes, especially in the lower grade levels and for certain student subgroups.

What people are saying

by a student
Friday, April 1, 2022

Went there as a middle schooler when Thorton Burgess closed. The transition was very rough for us. Now being in Minnechaug, I have come to the realization that Greenmeadows only caders to its younger students. But even then the staff couldn't handle a simple situation or put their two sense in with the parents. Anything to do with the middle school part of the school was turned away from. Any social issues were dismissed or were taken care of very poorly. I myself experienced harassment at the school and reported it to the principal. I was told my parents were going to be called and they would figure it out from there. In good old Green meadows fashion, nothing was done or taken seriously. As 6th to 8th graders, we should be treated fairly, problems like these were also seen in younger grades. My younger brother went there from kindergarten to 4th grade and was treated very differently than the other kids. He was in the middle of getting evaluated for autism when his 3rd-grade teacher recommended that my parents put him on drugs. I found it quite strange that the teachers had the nerve to be a doctor than to be a teacher and support these kids' educations. Don't put your kid through this school, the education is under par and will overwhelm your kid when they get to high school because they are so far behind. Trust me, I was the kid who got straight A's and still struggled when I got to high school. Close Quote
