Summary:
The 29044 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Webber School, which serves grades PK-5 with 202 students. Webber School is part of the Richland 01 school district, which is ranked 52 out of 75 districts in South Carolina and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Webber School's academic performance on state assessments is mixed compared to the district and state averages. In some grade levels and subjects, the school outperforms the district and state, but in others, it underperforms. For example, in 2024-2025, Webber School outperformed the district and state in 3rd and 4th grade English Language Arts, but underperformed in 5th grade ELA and all three grades of Mathematics. The school also has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 22.5% in 2023-2024.
Despite the academic challenges, Webber School serves a high-need student population, with 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The school's per-student spending for the 2023-2024 school year was $26,114, which is higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.8. These factors suggest that the school is working to provide additional resources and support to its students, but more may be needed to address the academic performance and attendance issues.
