Summary

Hunter Street Elementary is a PK-4 school in York, SC, serving 427 students within the York 01 district, which ranks in the middle tier of South Carolina districts. The school has earned a 3-star rating (69th percentile statewide) and is the clear academic leader among its four same-district elementary peers.

The most striking pattern at Hunter Street is the exceptional performance of its 4th grade students. In 2025-2026, 4th graders scored 73% proficient in ELA, 62.9% in math, and 61.5% in science—beating district averages by 12-14 points in every subject. This isn't a one-year fluke; 4th graders have outperformed 3rd graders in every subject for multiple years, suggesting a particularly strong 4th grade program. By comparison, Jefferson Elementary (58th percentile) and Harold C. Johnson Elementary (50th percentile) trail Hunter Street by 8-27 points in 4th grade subjects, while Cotton Belt Elementary (27th percentile) lags even further behind. The school also excels with students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, ranking in the 72nd percentile statewide for this group—a significant improvement from just two years ago.

However, there are areas worth noting. The school's 3rd grade math scores (57.9%) actually fall below the state average, and chronic absenteeism affects about 1 in 5 students, though this is better than the district rate of 27.6%. The school maintains a favorable 13.3:1 student-teacher ratio and spends about $16,500 per student. While nearby York 02 schools like Griggs Road Elementary (88th percentile) and Bethel Elementary (85th percentile) rank higher overall, they benefit from being in the state's 2nd-ranked district. For families considering Hunter Street, the data suggests students who stay through 4th grade experience strong academic growth, particularly in science and math.
