Summary

Greenwood School is a public elementary school in American Fork serving 713 students in prekindergarten through sixth grade within the Alpine District, an area with several nearby schools that have notably different performance levels. Greenwood has a student-teacher ratio of 21.8 and serves a more economically diverse population than many of the highest-ranked local schools. In 2025–26, it ranked 392nd of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it at the 30th percentile—down from the 46th percentile the prior year and well below its 63rd-percentile standing in 2016–17.

Academic results are the school’s biggest concern. In 2025–26, Greenwood’s English language arts and math proficiency rates were below Alpine District averages in every tested grade, and science results were also below district levels. Fifth-grade math was particularly weak at 31.4%, while sixth-grade math was a relative bright spot at 38.3%, slightly above Utah’s 37.4%. The differences are substantial compared with nearby schools: Legacy School, Shelley School, and Deerfield School all ranked far higher and exceeded Greenwood across nearly every tested area. By contrast, Greenwood performed generally better than Forbes School and Mount Mahogany School.

Attendance is another important issue. Greenwood’s chronic absenteeism improved from 42.0% in 2022–23 to 30.3% in 2024–25, but remained above both the district’s 20.8% and Utah’s 23.8%. The school’s low-socioeconomic-status subgroup ranked at the 62nd percentile, suggesting that some support systems are working better for that group than the overall results indicate. Greenwood is a large school, but its enrollment and staffing ratio are not unusual locally, so size alone does not explain the outcomes. For families, the overall picture is a school with broad academic improvement needs, elevated absenteeism, and some promising subgroup and attendance trends to build on.
