Summary

Louisville Academy School is an elementary school serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 352 students. The school is located in Louisville, Georgia, and is part of the Jefferson County School District, which is ranked 171 out of 206 districts in the state.

Louisville Academy School has consistently underperformed compared to the state and county averages in standardized test scores for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the state and county averages across all grade levels and subject areas. The school has been ranked in the bottom half of Georgia elementary schools for the past several years, with its ranking ranging from 897 out of 1238 schools in 2024-2025 to 1130 out of 1244 schools in 2021-2022. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, with rates ranging from 94.6% to 100% in recent years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While Louisville Academy School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.6 to 11.7 students per teacher in recent years, this does not seem to translate into better academic outcomes. The nearby schools, such as Wrens Elementary School and Carver Elementary School, have higher proficiency rates and better overall performance, despite having slightly higher student-teacher ratios. The school's low spending per student, ranging from $8,823 in 2016-2017 to $9,956 in 2018-2019, which is below the state average, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.
