Greenville School, Scarsdale NY - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Greenville School

Greenville School serves kindergarten through sixth grade in Scarsdale, a built-out residential village in Westchester County where single-family homes sit on generous lots and a compact village center anchors public life. The school enrolls a modest population of students, reflecting typical suburban elementary enrollment for its grade band. The student body is diverse in ethnicity and background, with substantial representation of Asian students alongside white, Hispanic, Black, and multiracial peers, though free-or-reduced-price-lunch data was not available.

The most recent state testing results show consistent academic strength. In math, proficiency rates across third through sixth grades cluster in the mid-to-high range, with fourth and sixth graders performing above fifth graders. In English language arts, results are similarly solid across the tested grades, ranging from the low-to-mid-80s in third and fourth grades to the high-80s in fifth and sixth. A science assessment in fifth grade also showed strong proficiency. Participation rates on these assessments are high, exceeding nine in ten students in most grades. Positioned against the other districts in Westchester County, Greenville's overall proficiency index places it above the midpoint of the county's school profile.

The school is part of the Edgemont Union Free School District, which in October 2024 approved a capital improvement bond for facility upgrades across all three of its schools. The district has also introduced its first full-day Pre-Kindergarten program, with the instructional portion subsidized by the state, and is expanding access through childcare partnerships. Beginning in the 2023-24 school year, the district added algebra as an option for eighth graders, opening advanced math pathways that align Edgemont with peer districts.

Scarsdale itself is an affluent community with strict architectural and zoning controls. The village center near the Metro-North station is walkable and home to shops, restaurants, and the public library, while most residential neighborhoods require a car for non-commuting trips. Housing values are high; the median home value in the area substantially exceeds state and national benchmarks, and rent is correspondingly steep. Median mortgage affordability is stretched at levels common to wealthy suburban communities, and rental-to-income ratios exceed typical thresholds.

The school operates in a stable, built-out residential setting. Families choosing this school are enrolling in a district with documented recent investments in capital facilities and early-childhood expansion, supported by a recent voter-approved bond. The academic results show competent teaching and engaged families, though a parent seeking detailed understanding of individual classroom practice, specific support structures for students below grade level, or long-term outcome data from the district's higher grades would want to speak directly with the school.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
