Summary

Teche Elementary School in Breaux Bridge, LA, serves 547 students in grades 3 through 5 within the St. Martin Parish school district, and has consistently earned a 3-star state rating over the past decade.

Teche Elementary stands out for its exceptional academic performance, particularly in mathematics, where 73% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year. This is significantly higher than the district average (60%) and state average (62%), and dramatically outperforms the nearby Breaux Bridge Elementary School, which achieved only 43% proficiency—a 30-percentage-point gap. The school also excels in English Language Arts (ELA) with 72% proficiency, matching the state average and surpassing the district average (70%), while Breaux Bridge Elementary scored just 54%. Additionally, Teche Elementary has a notably lower chronic absenteeism rate of 17.5%, compared to the district average of 26.4% and the state average of 22.5%, indicating strong student engagement. The school is particularly effective with its Special Education students, who ranked in the 71st percentile statewide and earned a 4-star rating.

Despite these strengths, Teche Elementary faces challenges. Social Studies is a consistent weakness, with only 52% of students proficient in 2025-2026, below the state average of 55%. The school also struggles with its Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students, who have ranked in the bottom 18th percentile or lower for three consecutive years. After peaking at the 76th percentile in 2023-2024, the school's overall rank dropped to the 59th percentile in 2025-2026, a decline that warrants attention. The stark contrast between Teche Elementary and Breaux Bridge Elementary—just 3.78 miles apart—highlights how school leadership, teaching quality, and culture can drive vastly different outcomes for similar student populations.
