Summary:
The 29450 zip code area has only one elementary school, Cainhoy Elementary, which serves students in grades K-5. Based on the available data, Cainhoy Elementary does not appear to be a standout school, consistently ranking in the bottom half of Berkeley 01 district and South Carolina elementary schools.
Cainhoy Elementary's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is significantly below the state and district averages across multiple subjects and grade levels. For example, in 4th grade math, only 16.7% of students were proficient or better, compared to 47.1% for the district and 53.7% for the state. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 22.5%, which may contribute to its poor academic outcomes.
Despite the higher-than-average spending per student ($19,603) and relatively low student-teacher ratio (17:1) at Cainhoy Elementary, the school is not seeing commensurate academic outcomes. This suggests that the school may need to examine its instructional practices and resource allocation to better support student learning and achievement.
