Abstract: This report details South Carolina's public school administrator workforce for the 2024-25 academic year. The analysis draws on statewide data to examine the demographic characteristics of South Carolina's principal and assistant principal workforce. Findings are based on data from 1,385 principals and 2,351 assistant principals employed in South Carolina public schools in 2024-25. The report also incorporates data from previous years to track longitudinal trends, offering insight into workforce patterns. These findings can support data-informed strategies to strengthen administrator recruitment and retention, which in turn may contribute to broader efforts to improve the stability of South Carolina's educator workforce.
