Summary:
The Greenwood Independent School District (Isd) contains a single high school, Greenwood High School, which serves grades 9 through 12 in Midland, Texas, with an enrollment of 879 students.
Greenwood High School stands out for its exceptionally high graduation rate of 97.7% and a very low dropout rate of 0.6%, indicating strong student support systems. The school shows notable academic strengths in Biology, where its 71.02% proficiency rate in the 2025-2026 school year exceeded the state average of 70.51%, and in English II Reading, where it has consistently outperformed the state average for two consecutive years. However, the school faces significant challenges in Algebra I, with only 43.88% of students proficient compared to 54.03% statewide, and in U.S. History, where 59.74% were proficient versus 70.17% statewide. The school's state ranking has declined from the 57th percentile (3 stars) in 2024-2025 to the 49th percentile (2 stars) in 2025-2026, despite mixed but not uniformly declining test scores, suggesting other schools are improving at a faster pace.
Key metrics include a student-teacher ratio of 14.5, per-student spending of $12,057, and 31.06% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch. The district itself is ranked 596th out of 951 districts in Texas (37th percentile, 2 stars), which is lower than the high school's individual ranking, implying that the district's overall performance is likely dragged down by its elementary and/or middle schools. The combination of a high graduation rate with moderate test scores suggests a focus on ensuring students graduate through credit recovery and support, even if they do not all meet the highest academic benchmarks on standardized tests.
