We are happy to provide you with this report showing our district’s progress. Our teachers and students are showing continuous improvement and our report card results are indicative that we have made much progress in the last year. We are very proud of our principals, teachers, and staff at each school. It is our intent to provide quality educational programs and services to all our students. This report card helps us to determine how our students are doing and how these planned programs are working.
In 2021 – 2022 Hampton County School District was created from the former Hampton One and Hampton Two districts. By consolidating we are expanding opportunities county wide for students, families, and our community. This past year the district merged the two high schools, Estill High School and Wade Hampton High School to form Hampton County High School. The former Estill High School building has been rennovated and is now the new location of Estill Elementary School.
Our district is helping all students develop the world class skills and life and career characteristics of the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate by offering a wide variety of rigorous academic and vocational courses. We are continuing our college, career, and vocational offerings through partnerships with The Technical College of the Low Country and USC-Salkehatchie. Our Early College program continues to grow; allowing enrolled students to earn both high school and college credit.
Hampton County School District continues to provide all students with the highest quality education that equips them to succeed in an evolving world. Besides a wide array of academic courses including dual-enrollment courses that allow Hampton Count High School students to earn high school and college credit, we have many clubs and afterschool opportunities in which students can participate including drama, sports, clubs, art, chorus, and STEM activities.
We believe students learn best in an environment conducive to learning and we are empowering our students to achieve excellence and positively impact the global community. We are in the process of building the new Hampton County High School (funded in part by the state- $52,000,000) and look forward to watching it come to life in 24-25. We are excited about the new programs we will be able to offer.
We wish to thank each parent and our community for their continued support. We thank our Board of Trustees and administrators for the outstanding leadership they provide to the school district. We expect to have a very productive 2024-2025 school year.
Please come and visit our schools to see the great things that are happening in Hampton County School District!
