Summary

Wintergreen Intermediate is a 3rd–5th grade elementary school in Greenville, NC, serving 821 students as part of Pitt County Schools. It is one of the strongest elementary schools in the region, ranking 200th out of 1,492 schools statewide in 2025–2026 (87th percentile) with a 4-star rating. That consistency is striking: it has ranked in the 87th–93rd percentile every year since 2015–2016. In 2025–2026, average math proficiency was about 79.7%, compared to 66.3% for the district and 63.6% for the state. Reading proficiency was 70.1%, versus 55.3% for the district and 56.2% for the state. Fifth-grade science proficiency was 79.6%, well above the district's 70.3% and the state's 67.7%.

These results are especially notable because nearly all Wintergreen students (99.63%) qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and the school still outranks every nearby traditional elementary school. The closest high-performing neighbor, Ridgewood Elementary, ranks 303rd statewide (80th percentile), followed by Eastern Elementary at 499th, Creekside Elementary at 504th, W. H. Robinson Elementary at 608th, Elmhurst Elementary at 745th, Wahl Coates Elementary at 1,035th, and South Greenville Elementary at 1,308th. Wintergreen also outperforms Winterville Charter Academy, a nearby charter school that serves a less economically disadvantaged population, in most grade levels and subjects.

One of Wintergreen's biggest advantages is attendance. Its chronic absenteeism rate was just 8.8% in 2024–2025 — less than half the state average of 24.2% and far below the Pitt County Schools rate of 21.7%. Nearby rates range from 10.9% at Wintergreen Primary to 25.3% at Wahl Coates Elementary. Notably, this success does not come from extra resources: Wintergreen spends about $8,418 per student — less than several lower-performing nearby schools — and its student-teacher ratio of 16.4 is no better than many peers. Reading is the relative soft spot, especially in 3rd grade, where proficiency was 66.9% in 2025–2026, though still above the state. Overall, Wintergreen pairs strong attendance with consistently high academic results, making it an important model among high-poverty elementary schools.

Open Quote My daughter has attended 3rd-5th grade at WGI, and, overall, it has been a huge disappointment. We chose our house based on another school, and this was certainly a "bait and switch". We had virtually no problems with the other school. Fifth grade has been the absolute worst year of all here. If the teachers aren't just completely apathetic, they are malicious. Saying inappropriate things to my daughter in the presence of other classmates, having yelling/screaming fits at students, taunting them about not bringing their lunch are just a few examples as evidence for my claims. The implementation of a structured recess is an outrage. I completely agree with the May 25th post that the principal lacks fundamental communication skills and is an inferior leader. I didn't involve her in any of my concerns this year as I have only been met with apathy on her part in previous years. This school just really needs to "take out their trash"...the good aspects of the school are completely overshadowed by the unacceptable ones. My youngest child's last year of elementary school has been QUITE a sad one. Close Quote
