Summary:
The York 03 school district in South Carolina is home to 5 middle schools serving grades 6-8. These schools vary in their academic performance, with Dutchman Creek Middle standing out as the top performer, ranking 110th out of 325 middle schools in the state and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. Dutchman Creek Middle has the highest proficiency rates in both math and English language arts across all grade levels, consistently outperforming the district and state averages.
Other notable schools include Saluda Trail Middle, which has the highest proficiency rate in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 at 97.91%, and Rawlinson Road Middle, which has the second-highest proficiency rate in this subject at 95.83%. However, the district as a whole tends to have lower proficiency rates in math compared to English language arts, a trend also seen at the state level.
The schools in the York 03 district serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This raises questions about the equity of educational opportunities and resources within the district, and suggests that further analysis and collaboration with school and district leaders could help identify strategies to support the success of all students.
