I believe the answer is:

ladyfied

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'raised in social status' is the definition.
The definition suggests a past participle verb which matches the answer.

'reorganising field day' is the wordplay.
'reorganising' indicates anagramming the letters (reorganising the letters).
'field'+'day'='fieldday'
'fieldday' is an anagram of 'LADYFIED'.
