This high-performing school serves 1,763 students and consistently outshines the Charleston 01 district and the state of South Carolina in academic achievement.

Lucy Garrett Beckham High School boasts a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and is ranked 15th out of 235 high schools in South Carolina for the 2024-2025 school year. The school's students excel on end-of-course exams, with over 80% proficiency in subjects like Algebra, English, and U.S. History. Additionally, the school maintains a low dropout rate of 2.3% and a strong 4-year graduation rate of 85.4%, further solidifying its reputation for academic excellence.

While the school's per-student spending of $28,366 is significantly higher than the state average, this investment appears to be paying off in the form of exceptional student performance. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 22.5% is an area that may require attention to ensure all students have the opportunity to fully benefit from the school's resources and educational offerings.
