Summary

Moncks Corner Elementary in Moncks Corner, SC, serves approximately 670 students in grades PK-5 within the Berkeley 01 school district, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school is currently rated 1 star out of 5, placing it in the bottom tier of South Carolina elementary schools (13th percentile statewide). This marks a significant decline from its 2016-2017 performance when it ranked in the 55th percentile. The most urgent concern is 4th grade math: only 18% of students scored proficient in 2025-2026, which is more than 34 points below the state average and represents a sharp drop from 30.9% just one year earlier. The school also shows inconsistent performance across grades—3rd grade reading is relatively close to the state average, but math proficiency falls dramatically by 4th grade. Chronic absenteeism spiked to 37.6% in 2022-2023, though it has since improved to 23.3%, which is now roughly in line with state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Moncks Corner Elementary stands out for its challenges despite similar funding. The school spends $13,270 per student—more than Cane Bay Elementary ($11,997) and Foxbank Elementary ($11,999)—yet those schools rank in the 77th and 47th percentiles, respectively. Even Boulder Bluff Elementary, which spends more per student ($14,657), achieves significantly better outcomes (41st percentile). The school also maintains a higher student-teacher ratio (18.6:1) than most peers, which typically range from 15.4 to 16.7. While the school has struggled to recover from pandemic-related learning loss, its historical performance shows it was capable of much stronger results, suggesting that targeted interventions in math instruction and continued efforts to reduce absenteeism could help reverse this downward trend.
