Summary

Fort Mill Middle in Fort Mill, SC, serves 620 students in grades 6 through 8 and is part of the top-rated York 04 school district, which holds a 5-star rating and ranks #1 out of 75 districts in the state.

Fort Mill Middle is a high-achieving school, consistently ranking in the top 10% of middle schools statewide (94th percentile). However, it sits within an exceptionally strong cluster of district peers. While it is the lowest-ranked among the five York 04 middle schools listed—with Gold Hill Middle (97th percentile), Forest Creek Middle (96th), and Pleasant Knoll Middle (95th) all ranking slightly higher—this is a testament to the district's overall excellence rather than a weakness. In contrast, nearby schools in the York 03 district, such as Castle Heights Middle (39th percentile) and W. C. Sullivan Middle (50th percentile), rank significantly lower. Fort Mill Middle also stands out for its perfect 100% proficiency rate on the Algebra 1 End-of-Course exam, and its 8th-grade math scores (76.5%) actually exceed those of higher-ranked peers like Gold Hill (73.8%) and Pleasant Knoll (75.4%).

The school invests heavily in its students, with the highest per-student spending ($14,477) among its York 04 peers and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.1:1, which is lower (better) than most neighboring schools. Chronic absenteeism (8.5%) is well below the state average of 22.3%, though slightly higher than the best-in-class rates at Gold Hill (6.7%) and Pleasant Knoll (5.7%). One area to watch is 6th and 7th-grade math proficiency (64% and 65.3%), which trails the district average, suggesting a potential focus for improvement in the lower grades. Overall, Fort Mill Middle offers a well-resourced, high-performing environment, particularly strong in advanced math, making it an excellent choice for families within this competitive district.
