Richland One Federal and State Identified Schools

Comprehensive Support and Improvement Schools (CSI Schools)

Under the Every Student Succeeds Act, states must identify schools that meet certain criteria that classify them as schools in need of improvement. CSI schools are defined as Title I schools performing at or below the 5th percentile of all Title I schools in the state. CSI schools are identified every three years.

Priority Schools

The South Carolina State Department of Education uses the designation of Priority Schools as schools performing in the bottom 10% of all schools in their grade span (elementary, middle or high). In order to exit Priority status, a school must no longer be ranked in the bottom 10% of schools at the end of the three years of a cycle. Each school will receive state technical assistance funds and support from the Office of School Transformation.

Additional Targeted Support and Improvement (ATSI) Schools

Additional Targeted Support and Improvement Schools (ATSI) schools are defined as any school with one or more subgroup of students performing at or below the 5th percentile of all schools in the state. ATSI schools with low-performing subgroups are identified every three years, in alignment with the state’s interim targets cycles. Each school will receive federal school improvement funds and receive technical assistance and support via professional development from relevant department of education offices.
