McColl Elementary/Middle

Summary:

McColl Elementary/Middle is a public school serving grades PK-8 in the Marlboro 01 school district in South Carolina, with a student population of 643 and a predominantly White and African American student body.

Despite spending a relatively high amount per student, McColl Elementary/Middle consistently ranks in the bottom half of South Carolina elementary schools, with very low academic performance. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels, and it has a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating that all students come from low-income households. The school's enrollment has also been declining, suggesting a potential decline in the local population or families choosing to send their children to other schools. Nearby schools in the Marlboro 01 district, such as Wallace Elementary/Middle, Bennettsville Intermediate, Bennettsville Primary, and Clio Elementary, also struggle with low academic performance and high poverty levels, suggesting a broader challenge in the district.

The analysis of McColl Elementary/Middle and the surrounding schools reveals a concerning pattern of low academic performance, high poverty levels, and significant resource challenges in the Marlboro 01 school district. The high spending per student and the consistent underperformance across student subgroups suggest that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution. Deeper interventions and targeted strategies to address the root causes of the academic challenges, such as teacher quality, curriculum, and family engagement, may be necessary to improve student outcomes in this district.

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.
