Summary

Mullins High serves approximately 557 students in grades 9-12 in the small town of Mullins, South Carolina, and is part of the Marion 10 school district.

Mullins High has shown remarkable signs of progress after a difficult period. The school hit a low point in 2023-2024, ranking in the 6th percentile statewide, but has since climbed to the 29th percentile for 2025-2026. Perhaps the most encouraging news is for students with disabilities—this subgroup jumped from the 1st percentile to the 79th percentile, earning a 4-star rating. The school also posted strong results for its African American students in 2024-2025, ranking in the 82nd percentile. Graduation rates have improved steadily, reaching 88.4% in 2024-2025, which now exceeds both the district and state averages. English 2 proficiency is another bright spot, with nearly 80% of students scoring proficient, close to the state average. However, the school faces significant challenges. Chronic absenteeism sits at 42.4%—nearly double the state average—and test scores swing dramatically from year to year, suggesting inconsistent instructional practices. The 2024-2025 school year stands out as a blueprint for success, when the school jumped to the 51st percentile overall, but those gains weren't fully sustained the following year.

Comparing Mullins to nearby schools highlights both the challenges and the potential. Just 15 miles away, Green Sea Floyds High and Aynor High in the Horry 01 district both rank in the 82nd-83rd percentile with 4-star ratings, despite serving similar student populations. Mullins spends more per student ($16,688) than Latta High ($11,917) and Dillon High ($12,443), yet those schools achieve comparable or better outcomes. The student-teacher ratio of 17.9:1 is also higher than at Green Sea Floyds (12.1:1) and Lake View High (12.8:1). The most pressing priority should be tackling chronic absenteeism—if the school can get students in the door consistently, the strong results it has already demonstrated with specific student groups suggest it has the tools to succeed.
