Summary:

The Anderson 04 school district in South Carolina is home to 4 high-performing elementary schools that serve students from pre-K through 5th grade. Based on the data, a few schools stand out as top performers in the district.

Mt. Lebanon Elementary and La France Elementary are the top-ranked schools, both earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking in the top 30 out of 640 elementary schools in the state. These schools boast consistently high test scores, with over 70% of students proficient or better in both ELA and Math across grade levels. In contrast, Pendleton Elementary and Townville Elementary have lower test scores and rankings, though they still perform well overall compared to the state.

The district as a whole appears to be doing an excellent job, with all 4 schools ranked in the top 30-221 out of 640 elementary schools in South Carolina. However, there is a clear gap in performance between the top 2 schools and the bottom 2. Factors such as spending per student, student-teacher ratios, and free/reduced lunch rates may contribute to these differences. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate across all schools could also be an area of focus for the district to improve student learning and achievement.
