Student Population

Two of these numbers are worth sitting with. Nearly two thirds of Greenfield’s students are counted by the state as high needs, and 58.6 percent are low income. Those figures are what the School Committee is working with when it approves a budget, and they are why the size of a city appropriation is not an abstract argument here. Roughly one student in four has a disability the district is required to serve.

Academic Performance & Context

Greenfield’s four year graduation rate was 85.7 percent for the most recent reported cohort. MCAS results, graduation rates and accountability data are published and updated every year by the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Because they change annually, this guide links to the live state profile rather than reprinting numbers that go stale.
