Summary

Midland High School is a public high school located in Midland, Louisiana, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 310 students. The school is part of the Acadia Parish school district, which is ranked 32 out of 118 districts in Louisiana and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Midland High School consistently outperforms the Acadia Parish and Louisiana state averages in standardized test scores across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Midland High School had 87% of students proficient or better in LEAP/English Language Arts for All Grades, compared to 71% for Acadia Parish and 70% for Louisiana. The school has a strong track record of high rankings and star ratings from SchoolDigger, ranking 20th and 13th out of all Louisiana high schools in the 2016-2017 and 2015-2016 school years, respectively, with a 5-star rating. Even in more recent years, the school has maintained a 4-star rating, indicating its consistent academic excellence. Midland High School's performance is particularly strong among female students and low socioeconomic status students, ranking 44th out of 308 Louisiana high schools for female students in the 2022-2023 school year with a 4-star rating.

While Midland High School's academic performance is strong, the school has experienced relatively high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 21.9% to 37.9% in recent years. This is an area that the school may need to address to ensure continued academic success. Midland High School's performance is generally stronger than the nearby schools in the Acadia Parish district, such as Rayne High School, Iota High School, and Crowley High School. However, some schools in the neighboring Jefferson Davis Parish, such as Kaplan High School, have also demonstrated strong academic performance, with higher rankings and test scores in certain subjects.
