Summary

Plainview High School in Glenmora, LA, is a small, alternative public school serving 313 students from Pre-K through 12th grade within the Rapides Parish school district. This school stands out for its exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of 11:1, which creates a personalized learning environment that helps students achieve remarkable academic results despite serving a predominantly low-income population.

Plainview's academic performance is impressive, particularly in English Language Arts and Social Studies, where it significantly outperforms nearby schools like Glenmora High School, Oak Hill High School, and Elizabeth High School. With an 85% proficiency rate in ELA and 69% in Social Studies, Plainview exceeds both district and state averages by wide margins. The school also boasts a perfect 0.0% dropout rate for four consecutive years, a stark contrast to the district average of 2.3%. However, there is a notable weakness in U.S. History, where only 14% of students are proficient—far below the district's 56%—suggesting a need for curriculum improvement in that subject.

Chronic absenteeism has been a challenge, peaking at 53.3% in 2020-2021, but it has dramatically improved to 25.6% in 2024-2025. This rate remains higher than nearby Glenmora High School (2.0%) and Fairview High School (15.2%), yet Plainview's academic success and perfect dropout record show that students who attend are highly engaged. The graduation rate, while strong at 87.5%, has dipped slightly from a peak of 94.1%, but the school's consistent improvement in attendance suggests a promising trajectory for even greater achievements.
