Summary

Webber School is a small elementary school in Eastover, SC, serving 209 students in grades PK-5 within the Richland 01 school district, where 100% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch.

Webber School has shown meaningful improvement over the past decade, climbing from the 10th percentile in 2016-2017 to the 36th percentile in 2025-2026, with a peak at the 50th percentile in 2024-2025. The school has earned 2-star ratings in each of the past three years after a decade of 1-star ratings. One of the school's standout strengths is its 4th grade English Language Arts performance, with 68.8% of students scoring proficient in 2025-2026, exceeding both the district (59.7%) and state (65.4%) averages. Science performance is also a bright spot, with 53.2% of 4th graders proficient, again beating district and state averages. The school invests heavily in its students, spending $27,762 per student with an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 10.1:1, compared to 13.4-15.3:1 at nearby district schools like Caughman Road Elementary and Horrell Hill Elementary.

Despite these strengths, Webber School faces persistent challenges. Chronic absenteeism remains high at 34.6% in 2024-2025, well above the district (26.7%) and state (22.3%) averages, though it has improved from a peak of 47.4% in 2022-2023. A concerning pattern also emerges in 5th grade math, where only 28.6% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, compared to 51.4% of 3rd graders in the same year. When compared to nearby schools, Webber's 36th percentile ranking places it in the middle of the pack—Hopkins Elementary leads at the 59th percentile, while Mill Creek Elementary (17th) and Horrell Hill (18th) lag behind. Given its 100% low-income population, Webber's performance is particularly notable, suggesting that when students are present, effective instruction is occurring. Addressing attendance could unlock further gains for this school on an upward trajectory.
