Summary

Broome High in Spartanburg, SC, serves approximately 865 students in grades 9-12 as part of Spartanburg 03, a district ranked in the top 15% of South Carolina districts. The school has shown steady improvement over the past decade, climbing from the 48th percentile statewide in 2018-2019 to the 57th percentile in 2025-2026, with a peak 4-star rating in 2023-2024.

Broome's standout strength is mathematics. In 2025-2026, 75.19% of students scored proficient on the Algebra 1 exam, well above the state average of 64.58% and significantly higher than nearby Spartanburg High (60.98%) and Dorman High (49.15%). English 2 proficiency is also solid at 82.83%, nearly matching the state average. The school excels at supporting economically disadvantaged students, who rank in the 68th percentile statewide despite 61-68% of the student body qualifying for free/reduced lunch. Broome also outperforms its closest neighbor, Spartanburg High, in graduation rate (89.5% vs. 84.3%), dropout rate (1.0% vs. 3.5%), and chronic absenteeism (28.7% vs. 34.3%), while spending slightly less per student ($14,045 vs. $14,424).

The most pressing concern is chronic absenteeism, which has more than doubled from 12.8% in 2020-2021 to 28.7% in 2024-2025, exceeding both district (25.4%) and state (22.3%) averages. Additionally, outcomes for students with disabilities have declined dramatically, falling from the 70th percentile (4 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 17th percentile (1 star) in 2025-2026. A widening gender gap has also emerged, with female students ranking in the 66th percentile versus 48th for males. Despite these challenges, Broome demonstrates strong resource efficiency, achieving better results than larger schools like Dorman (nearly 4.5 times its size) and dramatically outperforming Gaffney High, which spends only $4,461 per student and ranks in the 11th percentile.
