About Us

Welcome to Beaufort County School District, where academic excellence and student success are at the forefront of everything we do. With three of our high schools ranked in South Carolina's Top 35 by U.S. News and World Report, and all six ranked in the state's top half, our district has a proven track record of achievement. Under the leadership of Superintendent Frank Rodriguez, student literacy test scores on state assessments are the highest in the district’s history.

Our success is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, parents, employees, and community members.

With more than 3,000 employees, we are one of the largest employers in the county. We believe in fostering a collaborative environment that supports and nurtures the potential of every student. 

Our district has a wide span of offerings, from the highest academic courses for college credit to career and technical education programming so students can earn industry certifications to support their career aspirations. Through our dual enrollment partnerships with Technical College of the Lowcountry and the University of South Carolina Beaufort, our students can participate in college-level courses while still in high school. In the 2022-23 academic year alone, the district had more than 700 student enrollments in dual enrollment classes, preparing them for the rigors of college and beyond.

At Beaufort County School District, we are dedicated to providing an exceptional education and preparing our students for a bright future.
