The South Carolina Department of Education unveiled the statewide scores recently, showcasing the marked success of the WCSD.
Administered to students from the third to the eighth grades, the SC READY English Language Arts and Math State Assessment saw the WCSD registering significant gains.

Highlights of the district’s overall academic performance include:
High school students sat for the EOCEP assessments in English 2, Algebra 1, Biology 1, and U.S. History and the Constitution. The district recorded an overall increase in the number of students who scored A, B, or C from 2023 to 2024 in Algebra 1, English 2, and Biology 1. Plans are already underway to address the noticed decline in USHC scores.
Some noteworthy highlights from the district’s overall academic performance include:
Moving forward, the district plans to maintain its academic stride by implementing several strategies for the 2024-2025 academic year. These include the introduction of new ELA curriculums district-wide, continued implementation of Eureka Math2 for K-8 learners, and individualized learning plans with tools like i-Ready (K – 8) and Exact Path (9 – 10). In addition, the district will also be enhancing professional development opportunities for its educators and implementing innovative educational solutions.
In conclusion, the Williamsburg County School District is not just celebrating its success, but it is also focused on continuous improvement. The district remains committed to ensuring that every student has the necessary support to thrive and excel in their academic pursuits.
