Best Public Schools in Zip Code 29320

Summary:

The 29320 zip code in South Carolina is home to a single elementary school, Arcadia Elementary, which serves grades K-5 with 382 students. The school is part of the Spartanburg 06 school district, which is ranked 40 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Arcadia Elementary does not appear to be a standout school, as it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of South Carolina elementary schools over the past three school years, with a ranking between 510-564 out of 625-644 schools. The school is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other schools in the state. Arcadia Elementary's test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics are well below the district and state averages across all grade levels, and the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 22.5%.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $13,466, which is higher than the state average, Arcadia Elementary's academic performance remains a concern. The school serves a student population facing significant economic disadvantages, with 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. However, the low student-teacher ratio of 12.7 could be leveraged to provide more individualized support and targeted interventions for struggling students, potentially helping to improve academic outcomes in the future.
