Summary

Aynor Elementary is a public elementary school serving 784 students in grades PK-5 in Aynor, South Carolina. It is part of the Horry 01 school district, which is ranked 9 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Aynor Elementary has consistently been ranked in the top 30% of South Carolina elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a current ranking of 176 out of 640 schools.

One of Aynor Elementary's key strengths is its academic performance, as the school consistently outperforms the state and district averages in ELA and Math proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, 76.7% of 5th graders at Aynor Elementary were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 62.5% statewide and 66.8% in the Horry 01 district. Additionally, despite having a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, Aynor Elementary ranks in the top 16% of South Carolina elementary schools for this subgroup, indicating the school is effectively serving its economically disadvantaged students.

However, the school does face some challenges, such as a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 17.9% in 2021-2022 to 22.5% in 2023-2024. Additionally, while Aynor Elementary's female students perform very well, ranking in the top 20% of the state, the male students lag behind, ranking only in the top 35%. The school should also investigate and address the decline in performance of its white student population, which has dropped from the top 30% to the bottom 40% of the state over the past few years. By addressing these areas of concern, Aynor Elementary can continue to build on its strengths and ensure all students have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
