Student Counts

Active Student Headcounts: Student Headcount is a "snap-shot" count of actively enrolled students that is taken at three points during the year: the 45th day, 135th day, and 180th day. These counts satisfy state and federal data reporting needs and include distributions by school and district for grade, gender and race/ethnicity (district only).

Children with Disabilities Counts: Section 618(a) of the IDEA (as reauthorized in IDEA 2004) requires that States annually make specific data under section 618(a) available to the Secretary and to the public.

Home Schooling Headcounts: The Home Schooling Headcount report is a "snap-shot" count of actively enrolled students taken January 30th of each year. The South Carolina Association of Independent Home Schools report the number and grade level of children home schooled through the association to the children's respective school districts.

Private School Headcounts: The Private School headcount is grouped by county as private schools do not align themselves with public school districts. The Private School Report is sent out on a yearly basis for teacher and student count for K5 through 12th grade.
