Summary:

The Kershaw 01 school district in South Carolina is home to 4 middle schools: Camden Middle, Leslie M. Stover Middle, Lugoff-Elgin Middle, and North Central Middle. These schools serve students in grades 6-8 and face a range of challenges and strengths.

Lugoff-Elgin Middle stands out as the top-performing school in the district, consistently scoring above the state and district averages on standardized tests. In contrast, Camden Middle excels in mathematics, with 88.1% of students proficient or better in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2, significantly higher than the district and state. However, all 4 schools struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.5% to 25.5%, which may contribute to their lower overall academic performance.

The schools also vary in their student populations, with Camden Middle and North Central Middle having 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage. Lugoff-Elgin Middle, on the other hand, has a lower rate of 58.74%. These differences in student demographics and economic factors may play a role in the schools' varying academic outcomes and the need for targeted support and resources.
