Summary

GREEN Charter School Spartanburg is a K-8 public charter school in Spartanburg, SC, serving 412 students within the School Public Charter School District. The school has experienced a significant decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, falling from the 82nd percentile in 2020-2021 to the 48th percentile in 2025-2026, though it continues to show notable strengths in its upper-grade programming.

One of the school's standout features is its exceptional performance in middle school grades, which sets it apart from nearby elementary-only options. In the 2024-2025 school year, 8th graders achieved 82.6% proficiency in ELA and 56.5% in math, dramatically outpacing district averages of 58.6% and 23.9% respectively. This K-8 pathway offers families a continuous educational experience that nearby schools like Anderson Mill Elementary cannot provide, as they only serve through 5th grade. However, the school has shown significant year-to-year volatility in test scores, particularly in math, where 8th grade proficiency dropped from 70% in 2022-2023 to 27.3% in 2025-2026. The school also serves a growing population of students from low-income households, with free/reduced lunch participation rising from 38.8% to 63% over two years, and its performance with these students has declined from the 71st to the 48th percentile during that same period.

Despite these challenges, GREEN Charter remains a cost-efficient option at $9,230 per student, compared to $13,870 at Anderson Mill and $17,903 at Woodland Heights Elementary. The school continues to excel in ELA across most grades, with 5th graders reaching 80% proficiency in 2025-2026, well above the state average of 63.6%. Chronic absenteeism has improved from a spike of 28.9% in 2023-2024 to 19.8% in 2024-2025, which is below the state average. While the school faces competitive pressure from higher-performing nearby schools like Anderson Mill, its unique K-8 structure, strong middle school results, and cost efficiency make it a compelling choice for families seeking a continuous educational pathway through 8th grade.
