Summary

Conway Middle is a public middle school located in Conway, South Carolina, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 630 students. The school is part of the Horry 01 District, which is ranked 9 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Conway Middle consistently outperforms the state and district averages in standardized test scores, particularly in EOCEP/Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2, where the school has achieved over 98% proficiency in recent years. The school also has strong performance among its Hispanic and English Language Learner student populations, ranking in the top 25-30 schools in the state for these subgroups. However, the school's performance for African American and disabled students is relatively lower, ranking in the bottom half of the state. Additionally, Conway Middle's chronic absenteeism rate has fluctuated in recent years, remaining consistently higher than the state and district averages.

When compared to other middle schools in the Horry 01 District, Socastee Middle and Ocean Bay Middle consistently rank among the top 25 middle schools in the state, while Conway Middle generally performs on par or slightly below these top-performing schools. Over the past several years, Conway Middle's statewide ranking has fluctuated, suggesting that the school's performance may be influenced by factors beyond just the school itself. Despite these challenges, Conway Middle's spending per student has increased, and the school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, which could be contributing factors to its academic success.
