Lake View High

Summary:

Lake View High is a public high school serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 523 students in Lake View, South Carolina, which is part of the Dillon 04 school district. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages, particularly for certain student subgroups.

Lake View High's racial makeup is more diverse compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of White (51.24%) and Native American (3.06%) students. However, the school's academic performance is a concern, with only 42.5% of students proficient or better in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2, compared to the state average of 72.5%. The school's performance is particularly low for African American students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking 171st and 217th out of South Carolina high schools, respectively. Despite a relatively high per-student spending of $12,022, the school's academic struggles suggest that funding alone may not be the primary driver of student performance.

When compared to other nearby high schools, such as Dillon High and Marion High, which are also in high-poverty districts, Lake View High's performance is generally lower. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade, from 98th out of 225 high schools in 2018-2019 to 205th out of 235 high schools in 2023-2024, suggesting that the school is facing significant challenges in improving student outcomes. To address these issues, Lake View High may need to focus on targeted interventions and support, particularly in the areas of mathematics and English language arts, as well as addressing the unique needs of its diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
