Summary

Bourg Elementary School is a high-performing public school in Bourg, LA, serving 328 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 4th grade within the Terrebonne Parish school district, and it consistently ranks among the top 10-15% of elementary schools in Louisiana.

Bourg Elementary stands out as a clear academic leader in the region, earning a 5-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year and ranking 57th out of 690 elementary schools statewide (92nd percentile). This is significantly higher than nearby Terrebonne Parish schools like Legion Park Elementary School (370th) and Village East Elementary School (375th). The school's academic proficiency rates are dramatically above district and state averages, with 88% of students proficient in math (vs. 69% district and 62% state) and 86% proficient in English Language Arts (vs. 76% district and 70% state). Social Studies is a particular strength, with 79% proficiency—a 20-point gap over the district average. Even when compared to high-performing rivals across the parish line in Lafourche Parish, such as Lockport Upper Elementary School (73rd) and Bayou Blue Upper Elementary School (121st), Bourg holds a slight edge in overall rank and test scores.

Bourg's success is supported by a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13:1, which is lower than many of its high-performing peers, and a low chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9% (well below the district average of 26.7%). The school also serves a relatively lower-poverty population, with 52% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, compared to over 80% at nearby schools like Grand Caillou Elementary School and Acadian Elementary School. Notably, Bourg has shown a sharp upward trend in recent years, rocketing from a rank of 117th in 2022-2023 to 32nd in 2024-2025, suggesting recent instructional strategies are proving highly effective. The school is particularly effective with male students, who ranked 39th out of 682 schools statewide (94th percentile) in 2025-2026.
