Summary

Carencro Bob Lilly Elementary is a mid-sized school in Carencro, LA, serving 705 students in grades PK-5 within the Lafayette Parish district, where about 69% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, indicating a moderate-to-high level of economic need in the community.

This school stands out as a stable and improving option compared to many nearby schools. While schools like Dr. Raphael A. Baranco Elementary School, Alice N. Boucher Elementary School, and J.W. Faulk Elementary School are ranked in the bottom 25% of the state and struggle with chronic absenteeism rates over 37%, Carencro Bob Lilly has maintained a chronic absenteeism rate of 20.6%—better than both the district (24.0%) and state (22.5%) averages. Over the past decade, the school has climbed from the 14th percentile to the 38th percentile in state rankings, showing a clear upward trajectory. However, recent test scores in Math (60% proficient) and English Language Arts (59% proficient) have dipped to their lowest levels in four years, falling below the district averages of 71% and 74%, respectively.

A notable strength is the school's performance with its African American students, who ranked in the 80th percentile statewide in 2023-2024, though this has since moderated to the 53rd percentile. Additionally, 4th graders significantly outperformed the state average in Math (76% proficient vs. 67% state) in the most recent year, suggesting a potential "sweet spot" in that grade level. While the school is a beacon of stability in a challenged area, the recent academic dip and performance gaps between student groups are key areas to watch as it continues its journey of improvement.
