Cherokee 01


Summary:

The Cherokee 01 school district in South Carolina consists of 14 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district serves a diverse student population with varying academic performance and socioeconomic backgrounds.

Among the standout schools in the district are Corinth Elementary, which consistently ranks in the top 20% of South Carolina elementary schools, and Grassy Pond Elementary, which also performs well above the district and state averages. Additionally, Blacksburg Middle stands out for its exceptional performance on the Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 end-of-course exam, with over 90% of students proficient or better.

However, the district as a whole struggles with low test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and support to help struggling schools and students improve their academic performance. The data also reveals a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, with schools serving higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tending to have lower test scores. By identifying the standout schools and understanding the key metrics and disparities, district leaders can work to implement strategies that address the underlying issues and promote more equitable and effective education for all students in the Cherokee 01 school district.
