Lake View Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Lake View, South Carolina, with a student population of 365. The school is part of the Dillon 04 school district, which is ranked 66 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite receiving higher per-student funding than the state average, Lake View Elementary has consistently underperformed on standardized tests compared to the state and its own district. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics were significantly lower than the state averages, with the largest gaps in 4th grade Mathematics (10.6% proficient at Lake View vs. 51% statewide) and 5th grade Mathematics (29.7% proficient at Lake View vs. 45.8% statewide). Additionally, the school has a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating that all of its students come from low-income households.

While Latta Elementary is ranked higher and has a 2-star rating, and Green Sea Floyds Elementary is ranked even higher with a 3-star rating, Lake View Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of South Carolina elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade. The school's performance is particularly concerning for its White and low-socioeconomic status student subgroups, which rank in the bottom 20-25% of South Carolina elementary schools.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
