The schools in the Laurens 56 and Charter Institute at Erskine districts face significant socioeconomic challenges, with all schools having a high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients. While some schools, like Clinton High and Thornwell Charter, perform well in certain subject areas, the district-wide struggles in English Language Arts and Mathematics highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to address these areas of concern and improve educational outcomes for all students.
