Greenfield operates 6 public schools serving 1,476 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Massachusetts. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 elementary, 2 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 1,370 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Franklin County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $30,220 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 37.3% local, 51.6% state, and 11.1% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $112,313 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 53/100, ranked #51 of 362 in Massachusetts against a state average of 38 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (7 AP courses district-wide), a 159.5:1 student-counselor ratio that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 53.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 66.9% White, 22.2% Hispanic or Latino, 4.7% African American across the district's schools.
Greenfield High accounts for 29.5% of all Greenfield student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Greenfield-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Greenfield school enrollment varies 4.6× across entities
Greenfield school enrollment ranges from 87 students (lowest) to 404 students (highest), a spread of 317 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio — most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Greenfield student-counselor ratio is 160:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment — districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Greenfield chronic absenteeism rate is 53.5% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Greenfield has 6 schools, including 2 other, 4 elementary. Total enrollment is 1,476 students.
