Summary:
The city of Greenfield, Missouri is home to two schools: Greenfield Elementary and Greenfield High. Both schools face significant challenges, with low academic performance and high chronic absenteeism rates. However, Greenfield High stands out with an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate.
Greenfield R-IV school district, which oversees both schools, is ranked 242 out of 386 districts in Missouri and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. Greenfield Elementary's performance on state assessments is particularly concerning, with proficiency rates ranging from 3.8% to 22.7% across different grade levels and subjects, well below the state averages. In contrast, Greenfield High's performance is more mixed, with some areas exceeding the state average and others falling significantly behind.
Both schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, over 52%, suggesting they serve a population with significant economic challenges. The high chronic absenteeism rates at both schools, 25.1%, may be contributing to the low academic performance and are an area of concern that requires targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
