Charleston county is a great place for school. While Wando high school is extremely overcrowded, it does provide a great experience for many students. Some students do struggle more than others and depending on who they see, they’re helped to the fullest extent. CCSD does however have quite a few issues with ‘sharing the wealth’, especially between sports, students, and clubs.
I have been a student in Charleston County School District for my entire educational career. To sum up my experience: the teachers are great, the facilities are fine but the administrations and management are a disaster and in need of improvement. Most of the teachers I've known have cared immensely about their job and their students, but I couldn't say the same of the administrators.
Charleston county school district cares about their students as a whole. This district tends to push their students and enforces challenging work for kids to excel in the future. The con about this district is certain students that are in this district, tend to not have a positive outlook on their future and sometimes think about short-term gratification instead of long-term.
