Summary

Windsor Hill Arts Infused Elementary is a PK-5 public school in North Charleston, SC, serving 622 students within the Dorchester 02 district, where its arts-focused curriculum meets a mix of notable strengths and significant challenges.

Windsor Hill’s overall performance sits in the middle of the pack—ranking in the 43rd percentile statewide with a 2-star rating—but the picture is more nuanced when you look closer. The school shines with its African American students, ranking in the 72nd percentile for that group, a standout result compared to its overall ranking. However, this success isn’t uniform across all students, and the school faces a steep "proficiency cliff" as kids move up in grades. In 3rd grade, 70.4% of students are proficient in ELA, but that drops to 45.9% by 5th grade. Math tells an even starker story: proficiency falls from 68.4% in 3rd grade to just 32.3% in 5th grade. This pattern is unique among nearby schools—for example, Joseph R. Pye Elementary and Fort Dorchester Elementary, both in the same district, maintain or improve scores in upper grades. Chronic absenteeism (around 24-25%) is also notably higher than those high-performing peers, which likely contributes to the academic slide.

Financially, Windsor Hill spends more per student ($15,236) than its higher-achieving district neighbors, yet gets less academic return, suggesting resources may not be allocated as effectively. Still, context matters: the school dramatically outperforms nearby Charleston 01 schools like Pinehurst Elementary and A.C. Corcoran Elementary, where proficiency rates are in the single digits. For parents, Windsor Hill offers a unique arts-infused environment with proven success for some students, but the declining upper-grade performance and attendance issues are critical factors to weigh when considering this school.
