State report card

South Carolina rates every public school each year as Excellent, Good, Average, Below Average or Unsatisfactory. An Excellent rating means “school performance substantially exceeds the criteria to ensure all students meet the Profile of the SC Graduate,” according to the state’s report card site. The overall rating is built from indicators such as academic achievement, preparing for success, student progress, English learners’ progress and school climate, with graduation rate and college and career readiness added for high schools.

2024-25: the state listed Pattison’s Academy as Not Rated for its elementary, middle and high school grades, and most of its test results are suppressed in the state’s data files. The full card is on the state’s SC School Report Cards site.

Admission
