Summary

Hannah Pamplico High School serves approximately 332 students in grades 9-12 in the rural community of Pamplico, SC, as part of the Florence 02 school district.

This school is showing real momentum. The graduation rate has climbed from 71.7% in 2021-2022 to an impressive 90.5% in 2024-2025, now exceeding the state average of 86.7%. The dropout rate is remarkably low at just 0.6%, compared to the state's 2.1%. Students are also performing well in Algebra, with 71% scoring proficient versus 64.6% statewide. The school has shown particular strength with its African American students, who ranked in the 73rd percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a dramatic jump from the 38th percentile just two years prior. When compared to nearby options, Hannah Pamplico outperforms Lake City High (16th percentile) and Marion High (21st percentile) in overall ranking, graduation rate, and test scores. It also achieves better results than Hemingway High despite spending $8,000 less per student. With a student-teacher ratio of 12.5:1, students get more individual attention than at larger schools like South Florence High.

There are some challenges to note. Chronic absenteeism has risen to 27.7%, above the state average of 22.3%, though it remains far better than Hemingway High's 52.8% or Marion High's 37.6%. The school also shows inconsistent performance in U.S. History, with proficiency swinging from 29.75% to 64.29% over three years. While the school excels with African American students, White students rank in only the 23rd percentile—a gap that has persisted for three years. Male students (44th percentile) also trail female students (58th percentile) in recent rankings. Despite these areas for growth, the overall trajectory is strongly positive. The school has climbed from the 26th to the 52nd percentile statewide since 2016-2017, and its efficient use of resources—achieving strong results while spending less than many comparable schools—suggests effective leadership and a smart approach to helping all students succeed.
