Greensboro public schools: every school, zone and report card

Last checked Oct. 11, 2026. Sources: Guilford County Schools’ school list, assignment locator, 2026-27 feeder list (PDF) and boundary changes page; the N.C. Department of Public Instruction’s 2024-25 report card data and 2025-26 accountability data; the federal NCES school directory and Private School Survey; and the N.C. Division of Non-Public Education’s private school list.

Every district public school in Greensboro is run by Guilford County Schools, one countywide district that also serves High Point, Jamestown and the rest of the county. Attendance zones do not follow city limits: every address is assigned to a neighborhood elementary, middle and high school, and some Greensboro-area addresses are zoned for Northeast Guilford High in McLeansville, Eastern Guilford High in Gibsonville or Ragsdale High in Jamestown. Look up any address with the district’s 2026-27 School Assignment Locator.
