South Carolina Education Oversight Committee
Abstract
In 2012, the Department of Defense reported there were 23,710 military connected students (ages six through eighteen),
in the state. In South Carolina, military connected students in middle and high school have higher absence rates than military connected students in elementary school. Military connected students achieve higher levels on state assessments than their non-military peers. School districts are eligible for additional Federal funding based on the number of Federally connected students (including military connected students) they educate.
