Colleton County High School students enrolled in a gateway course that awards units of credit in English/language arts, mathematics, science and social studies will be participating in South Carolina’s End-of-Course Examination Program (EOCEP) assessment program. These exams are end-of-course tests given at the end of the semester or the end of the year. In accordance with state law, the EOCEP examination scores count 20 percent in the calculation of the student’s final grade for these courses. Defined gateway courses currently include Algebra 1, Intermediate Algebra, Biology 1, English 2, and the United States History and the Constitution.
