Summary:
The data set contains information about a single public elementary school, Wagram Elementary, serving grades PK-5 in the 28396 zip code. Wagram Elementary faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low proficiency rates on state standardized tests compared to district and state averages, and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Wagram Elementary serves a diverse student population, with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's per-student spending is relatively high at $11,834, but the persistent academic struggles suggest that the current level of resources and support may not be sufficient to overcome the barriers faced by the student population. Targeted interventions and support focused on addressing the specific learning needs of the diverse student body could be crucial in driving academic progress at the school.
Overall, the data highlights the need for targeted efforts to improve student outcomes and provide equitable educational opportunities for the community served by Scotland County Schools. The challenges faced by Wagram Elementary underscore the importance of data-driven decision-making and tailored strategies to support schools serving predominantly economically disadvantaged and minority student populations.
