Best Public Schools in Estill, SC


Summary:

The city of Estill, South Carolina is home to two public schools: Estill Elementary and Estill Middle. Both schools serve a predominantly African American student population and face significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance compared to the Hampton district and the state of South Carolina.

Estill Elementary is ranked 367 out of 638 South Carolina elementary schools and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, while Estill Middle is ranked 256 out of 325 South Carolina middle schools and is rated 1 out of 5 stars. Both schools have significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the Hampton district and the state. This suggests a systemic issue that needs to be addressed, as the schools are struggling to provide a high-quality education to their students.

The high poverty levels in the Estill community, with 100% of students at both schools receiving free or reduced-price lunch, may be a significant factor in the schools' academic performance. Additionally, the racial disparities in the student populations raise questions about equity and access to educational opportunities for all students in the area. While the schools have relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, these resources may not be the primary issue, and other factors, such as curriculum, teaching quality, and community engagement, may be more significant in improving the academic outcomes for the students in Estill.
