Summary

Caddo Heights Math/Science Elementary School is a PK-5 public school in Shreveport, LA, serving 604 students within the Caddo Parish school district, where nearly 89% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, indicating very high economic need.

While the school has historically faced academic challenges, it shows notable strengths in specific areas. Most significantly, Caddo Heights has a much stronger culture of attendance than similar high-poverty schools nearby, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 21.3%—dramatically lower than Atkins Technology Elementary (49.1%), Broadmoor STEM Academy (42.9%), and Creswell Elementary (38.3%). The school also demonstrates relative effectiveness with Special Education students, ranking in the 20th percentile statewide for this subgroup—a bright spot compared to its overall performance. Additionally, Caddo Heights earned a 2-star rating for its work with homeless students, suggesting focused support for this vulnerable population.

Despite its "Math/Science" magnet theme, the school's math proficiency (35%) is not a clear strength and is actually lower than nearby non-magnet schools like Midway Professional Development Center (44%). Interestingly, the school achieved a one-year spike in 2022-2023, reaching its highest state ranking in a decade (23rd percentile) and math proficiency (48%), showing it is capable of higher performance. This is especially striking given that top-performing magnet schools like South Highlands Elementary Magnet (ranked #3 in LA) and Fairfield Magnet School (ranked #7) are within 1.5 miles, highlighting a deep academic divide in the same community. The school's improving attendance trend provides a strong foundation to build upon for future academic growth.
