Summary

Mauldin High, located at 701 East Butler Road in Mauldin, SC, is a large public high school serving 2,133 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Greenville 01 school district. This school has built a strong reputation for consistent academic excellence, earning 4 or 5 stars from the state every year for the past decade and ranking in the 87th percentile statewide in the most recent school year.

What truly sets Mauldin High apart is its ability to achieve top-tier results across the board while serving a large and diverse student body. The school's graduation rate of 96.2% is the highest among nearby traditional public schools, outpacing Hillcrest High (94.5%), J. L. Mann High Academy (92.5%), and Southside High (84.4%). Academically, Mauldin's proficiency rates in English 1 (80.5%), English 2 (91.1%), and U.S. History (77.9%) all substantially exceed district and state averages. Perhaps most impressive is the school's performance with student subgroups that often face achievement gaps elsewhere—Mauldin ranks in the 94th percentile for African American students, the 95th percentile for multi-racial students, and the 93rd percentile for students with disabilities, demonstrating a genuine commitment to lifting all students. The school also achieves these outcomes efficiently, spending $11,831 per student—less than nearby schools like Southside High ($13,571) while delivering dramatically better results.

While Mauldin's overall performance is outstanding, there are a couple of areas worth noting. The school's English Language Learner (ELL) students have seen a significant decline in performance, dropping from the 87th percentile to the 36th percentile in just two years. Additionally, rankings for Gifted and Talented students have been volatile, falling from the 89th to the 58th percentile recently. Chronic absenteeism, at 23.3%, is better than most traditional public schools in the area but higher than nearby charter options like Brashier Middle College Charter High (3.5%) and Greenville Technical Charter High School (6.8%). For families seeking a large, comprehensive high school that delivers strong academics, high graduation rates, and equitable outcomes for a wide range of students, Mauldin High stands out as one of the strongest traditional public options in the Greenville area.

Open Quote The entire culture of this school is toxic in so many ways I can't explain. My daughter has been treated so poorly by her peers, and not by your traditional bullies who all of us grew up with but a whole new generation of intelligent, super involved in school activities, loved by all the teachers and administrators, passive aggressive, rumor spreading bullies. The majority of the bullies come from the "STUCO" (student council). Why does any school need such a large and powerful presence for student government. Student government should be a special position with no more than four elected per class of students who TRULY embrace the best qualities of the school. Instead Mauldin as turned it into a popular and giant clique of bullies. If something you do rubs one student council member the wrong way, even something as simple as ending a high school relationship, that ENTIRE clique of probably 75-100 kids will have it out for your for the rest of your high school experience. Of course, its all sneaky and done behind the scenes in passive aggressive ways on social media, little things like pointing and laughing, driving by with a car of them just staring at your or yelling things at you in the parking lot. Rumors spread about you that are so far from the truth that it's actually absurd. Suddenly you have a "reputation" you in no way earned and no one wants to be your friend or date you. and the bullying tactics and intimidation continue. If you participate in any school activities, you are treated so poorly you never want to participate again. The administrators don't know you or care about you, despite the fact that you are an excellent student with a high gpa and a bright future, simply because you don't sign up for all the school activities because you don't feel WELCOME. You are non existent to them, while they continue to rub elbows and be best friends with the STUCO kids. Then finally you are so defeated you come home crying every day and you don't know how you will make it to graduation. Administration DO BETTER. "Mavs Matter" means nothing when they don't ALL matter to you. Reach out to the quiet kids, even the ones who smile to hide their pain. Change the culture of this enviroment. Make passive aggressive bullying something you hold students, even your precious STUCO members accountable for. Simply put. DO BETTER . Close Quote
