Kingstree High School is located in Kingstree, South Carolina, the county seat of Williamsburg County, and serves approximately 614 students. The campus includes HOPE Academy, the district’s alternative education program, and Flex Learning Academy, a program designed to support students who are over-age for their grade level and help them get on track academically.
During the 2025 - 2026 school year, we continued to advance academic rigor. A total of 43 scholars participated in one or more Advanced Placement courses through our newly established AP Academy. We continued our partnership with the South Carolina Governor’s School for Science and Math virtual program. Our scholars had the opportunity to enroll in Dual Enrollment courses as well as participate in the WCSD Early College Program supported by Williamsburg Technical College. These programs have provided students with enhanced opportunities to build critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Kingstree High School remains focused on equipping every student with the tools necessary to thrive in a competitive and ever-evolving global society.
To foster leadership and career readiness, students have participated in business field trips, listened to visiting speakers, and taken part in mentorship programs. Technology integration continues to play a key role in instruction, with each classroom equipped with ClearTouch panels and desktop computers. Additionally, we are a 1-to-1 school where every student is provided with a wireless-enabled laptop to support their learning.
Blazer Time was built into the Master Schedule as 30 minutes of daily intervention time for academic support for all scholars. In preparation for End-of-Course Examination Program assessments, scholars participated in an intensive review initiative known as the “EOC Blitz.” This intentional, focused effort enabled scholars to revisit and reinforce course content, thereby increasing their chances of success on these critical exams.
Recognizing the importance of communication and collaboration, essential skills for 21st Century learners, Kingstree High School encourages scholars to work together and invites parents to remain actively engaged in their children’s academic journeys. This year, scholars created group chats to share information and coordinate events, further developing their teamwork skills. The school keeps families informed through regular updates to our website, an automated messaging system, and frequent posts on Facebook, as well as hosting Town Hall meetings.
Kingstree High School remains steadfast in its mission to provide rigorous academic standards and innovative instruction, while offering leadership opportunities that prepare all students to achieve the World Class Skills outlined in the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate.
