Summary

North Vermilion High School in Maurice, LA, is a high-performing public school serving 790 students in grades 9-12 within the highly-ranked Vermilion Parish school district. This school has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for seven of the last ten years and consistently ranks in the top 10% of all Louisiana high schools, making it a standout choice for families in the area.

What truly sets North Vermilion apart from nearby schools is its exceptional academic performance across all subjects, with LEAP test scores 10-20 percentage points higher than state averages. For example, Algebra I proficiency is 85% and English II is 86%, compared to Erath High School which shows more variability with 89% in English II but only 72% in Biology. The school also maintains a remarkable near-zero dropout rate of 0.0% for the last two years, far surpassing the district average of 1.3% and the state average of 3.1%. In contrast, nearby Abbeville High School has a dropout rate of 4.7%, and JCFA Lafayette has a staggering 18.8%.

Perhaps most impressive is North Vermilion's extraordinary success with economically disadvantaged students, ranking in the 91st percentile statewide for this subgroup. This indicates the school is exceptionally effective at closing achievement gaps, a challenge that plagues many other schools in the region. While Early College Academy in Lafayette achieves 100% proficiency rates, it is a selective-admissions magnet school with only 257 students, making North Vermilion's achievement more impressive as it serves a larger, more diverse student body. The school's consistent excellence, combined with its ability to support all students, makes it a model of high-quality public education in Louisiana.
