Summary:
The York 01 school district in South Carolina is home to a single high school, York Comprehensive High, which serves grades 9-12 and has an enrollment of 1,493 students.
York Comprehensive High has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup that is 64.5% White, 17.88% African American, 10.38% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of Asian, Native American, and Pacific Islander students. However, the school faces academic challenges, with proficiency rates on end-of-course exams that are generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 and English 1. This may be partly due to the high percentage of students (68.45%) who receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges faced by the school's population.
Despite these academic and socioeconomic factors, York Comprehensive High has a relatively high spending per student of $13,378, which is higher than the state average. The school also has a student-teacher ratio of 17.3 to 1, suggesting that resources may not be the primary limiting factor in student achievement. Moving forward, the school may need to focus on targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of its diverse student population and improve overall academic performance.
