Don't let the seeming lack of diversity allow you to disregard this wonderful school. I was one of the only white students there at the time of my graduation, but it made no difference to anyone. The teachers deserve national reconation, this school has outstanding school spirit and has been recently remodeled to include a great libary. I can only hope that every student has a Ms.Moye, Mr.Fernandez and a Ms.McCutchen like I had at this school.

Baptist Hill High School is the place to send your child(ren). It is a small rural High School with much potential. The current principal Mr. Winbush is doing a wonderful job with improving the overall outlook of one of Charleston's most under-rated schools. As a former student, I converse with so many alumnists, and they tell me how proud they are of Baptist Hill. The School's spirit and morale is beyond excellent.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 South Carolina used the Palmetto Assessment of State Standards (PASS) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in writing, English/Language Arts, Math, Social Studies and Science. The PASS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of South Carolina. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
