Waccamaw Elementary

Summary:

Waccamaw Elementary is a public elementary school in Conway, South Carolina, serving 993 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Horry 01 School District, which is ranked 9th out of 75 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Waccamaw Elementary has a relatively diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 50.76% White, 18.93% African American, and 20.95% Hispanic, which is higher compared to some nearby schools like River Oaks Elementary (59.74% White) and Kingston Elementary (67.87% White). Academically, the school's performance is generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, but it ranks highly for African American and Hispanic students while performing lower for White and Gifted and Talented students. Notably, Waccamaw Elementary has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which is significantly higher than nearby schools like Carolina Forest Elementary (67.98%).

Despite maintaining a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, Waccamaw Elementary's diverse student population and high poverty concentration set it apart from some of the more affluent and homogeneous nearby schools. The school's strengths and weaknesses in serving different student subgroups suggest the need for further investigation and targeted interventions to ensure equitable educational outcomes for all students.

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.
