Lexington County School District Three is thrilled to celebrate our students who earned perfect scores on their SC Ready assessments and End-of-Course exams. These high-achieving Panthers were recognized at the Lexington Three Board of Trustees meeting on Tuesday, November 11th and received special yard signs to proudly showcase their incredible accomplishments.
SC READY PERFECT SCORES:
The South Carolina College-and-Career-Ready Assessments (SC READY) is a statewide assessment in English Language Arts, mathematics, science and social studies administered to students in grades 3–8 as required by the Education Accountability Act.
For the 2024-2025 school year, two students earned perfect scores on the math test while they were 8th graders at B-L Middle School. Congratulations to Jacen Filyah and Sally Paradice!

END-OF-COURSE PERFECT SCORES:
End-of-Course exams in South Carolina are standardized tests given at the high school level to assess students' mastery of specific subjects including Algebra I, Biology 1, English 2, and U.S. History. These exams serve as a key measure of student learning and account for 20% of a student’s final grade in each respective course. EOC exams are intended to ensure consistency and academic rigor across the state and help evaluate both individual student performance and overall school effectiveness in core subject areas.
