Best Public Schools in Zip Code 29201


Summary:

The 29201 zip code area in South Carolina is home to two schools: Clear Dot Charter School, an alternative school, and Logan Elementary, a traditional elementary school. While both schools serve a predominantly African American student population and have high rates of free or reduced-price lunch, Logan Elementary emerges as the standout performer in the area.

Logan Elementary outperforms the district (Richland 01) and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-5, placing it in the top 50% of South Carolina elementary schools. In contrast, Clear Dot Charter School, which has a higher overall enrollment, lags behind the district and state averages in most subject areas and grade levels. This significant gap in test scores suggests that factors beyond just socioeconomic status, such as school leadership, teaching quality, and curriculum, may be contributing to the performance differences.

The higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio at Logan Elementary may be contributing to the school's stronger academic performance. Additionally, the school's racial demographics, which mirror those of Clear Dot Charter School, suggest that factors beyond just racial composition, such as school culture and targeted support programs, may be influencing the academic success of the students.
