Summary:

The Dillon 03 district in South Carolina is home to three schools: Latta Elementary, Latta Middle, and Latta High. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.

Among the three schools, Latta Middle and Latta High stand out as the top performers. Latta Middle School ranks 121 out of 320 South Carolina middle schools and excels in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2, with a proficiency rate of 91.43%, as well as in English Language Arts. Latta High School, ranked 82 out of 235 South Carolina high schools, maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 85.4% and achieves a 91.42% proficiency rate in English 2 End of Course exams.

However, all three schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 22.5% and significant socioeconomic disparities, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 73.4% to 79.36%. Additionally, the schools struggle with Mathematics proficiency, particularly in the lower grades, with rates significantly below the state averages. The differences in spending per student and student-teacher ratios among the schools suggest potential inequities in resource allocation within the district, which may impact academic performance.
