Summary

Greenfield School is a PK–12 alternative school in Greenfield, Tennessee, serving 454 students within Weakley County Schools, a district rated 4 stars that ranks in the 87th percentile of Tennessee districts.

Greenfield posts a 2024–2025 graduation rate of 91.2%, a dropout rate of just 2.9%, and chronic absenteeism of 11.4% — all better than state averages. The school also outperforms both its district and the state on several core TNReady subject-area proficiency measures. In mathematics, 60.7% of students are proficient versus 43.0% statewide; in English Language Arts, 58.8% versus 40.6%; in science, 65.0% versus 46.9%; and in social studies, 71.7% versus 51.4%. Math proficiency has improved sharply, climbing from 46.3% in 2023–2024 to 60.7% in the latest data. Chronic absenteeism has also dropped dramatically, from 23.7% in 2022–2023 to 11.4% in 2024–2025, now below the district average of 11.7% and well below the state's 18.3%.

Greenfield compares favorably to nearby Gleason School, its closest same-district counterpart, outperforming it in nearly every all-grades tested category — including math (60.7% vs. 48.3%), ELA (58.8% vs. 49.4%), science (65.0% vs. 53.6%), and social studies (71.7% vs. 62.4%). Elementary and middle school achievement is especially strong, with 4th grade math at 75.9%, 3rd grade ELA at 72.4%, and 6th grade social studies at 83.9% proficient. The school spends approximately $13,334 per student, similar to Gleason's $13,407, reflecting the additional support needs of an alternative school model. The main challenges are isolated high school subjects — particularly Biology I (46.5%), English I (36.4%), and US History (36.8%) — which trail state averages. Overall, Greenfield is a high-performing school with strong foundations and positive momentum.
