Summary

Congetta Trippe Janet Elementary School in Marrero, LA, serves 868 students from Pre-K through 8th grade in the Jefferson Parish school district, where over 68% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school has historically been a solid performer, earning a 3-star rating for years, but recently dropped to a 2-star rating in the 2025-2026 school year, ranking in the 45th percentile statewide. Despite this recent decline, the school stands out as a beacon of success in its neighborhood, dramatically outperforming nearby schools like Estelle School (31% Math, 46% ELA) and Woodmere School (28% Math, 44% ELA) in both math and English proficiency.

One of the school's biggest strengths is its exceptional performance in advanced coursework, with 94% of students proficient in Algebra I and 67% in English I End-of-Course exams in the 2025-2026 school year. This is a massive differentiator from its peers. Additionally, the school boasts a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 12.6%, which is nearly half the district rate of 21.5% and far better than neighbors like Isaac G Joseph Elementary (38.4%) and Harry S Truman School (37.6%). The school's improving student-teacher ratio, now at 14.6, likely contributes to these positive outcomes by allowing for more individualized attention.

However, the recent broad-based decline in the school's state ranking is a red flag that warrants attention, as it affects nearly all student groups. While the school excels for many, it is critically underperforming for its White student population, who ranked in the 7th percentile statewide in the 2025-2026 school year. This equity issue stands in stark contrast to the school's overall success and its strong performance for other groups. For parents, Congetta Trippe Janet remains a strong academic leader in a challenging area, but the recent dip and persistent achievement gaps are important factors to consider when evaluating the school's current trajectory.
