Summary:
The city of Easley, South Carolina is home to a single public high school, Easley High. Serving grades 9-12, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and performance metrics in recent years, indicating some challenges in maintaining academic excellence.
Easley High's graduation rate of 85.4% for the 2023-2024 school year was lower than both the Pickens 01 district average of 87.7% and the state average of 86.1%. The school also had a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 22.5%, significantly above the district and state averages. Academically, Easley High underperformed the district and state in proficiency rates on end-of-course exams, except for English 2.
While Easley High has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 59.73%, its per-student spending of $9,243 is slightly lower than the district and state averages. The school's student-teacher ratio of 18.8 is also higher than the district and state averages. These demographic and financial factors may be contributing to the school's performance challenges and should be addressed through targeted interventions and strategies to improve outcomes for its students.
