Green Acres Middle School is a middle school in the Birmingham City Schools system located at 945 Pineview Road in the Green Acres neighborhood, for which it is named. It was built in 1956 on land formerly owned by Zula Cofield, who protested the actions by the city to condemn her property.
In 2008 the school underwent extensive renovations. Originally budgeted at $6.5 million, the scope of work was increased to nearly $10 million as the exterior cladding, roofing and air conditioning were all replaced and a new media center was added.
Evelyn Baugh is the current principal.
