Summary:
The Chesterfield 01 district in South Carolina is home to three middle schools: New Heights Middle, Long Middle, and Chesterfield-Ruby Middle. These schools serve students in grades 6-8 and face significant socioeconomic challenges, with all students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Among the three schools, Chesterfield-Ruby Middle stands out as a top performer, with the highest percentage of white students and the best performance on the EOCEP/Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2 End of Course exam, as well as the highest proficiency rates in Mathematics across all grade levels. In contrast, New Heights Middle struggles the most, with significantly lower proficiency rates in Mathematics compared to the state average.
The data also reveals disparities in English Language Arts performance, with Long Middle outperforming the other schools in this subject area. Additionally, Long Middle has the highest spending per student and the lowest student-teacher ratio, suggesting that factors beyond just funding and resources may be contributing to the differences in student outcomes across the Chesterfield 01 district.
