Summary:
The city of Campti, Louisiana is home to two schools - Lakeview Junior/Senior High School and Fairview-Alpha Elementary & Junior High School. Both schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with very high free/reduced lunch rates of over 87%. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, they struggle academically, with low statewide rankings and test scores below the Natchitoches Parish and Louisiana state averages.
Lakeview Junior/Senior High School is the only high school in the area, serving grades 7-12 with 301 students. It has a low 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger and a relatively high 3.3% dropout rate, despite a decent 83.2% four-year graduation rate. Chronic absenteeism is a significant issue at 24.6%. The school's test scores are generally below average across various LEAP subjects and grade levels.
Fairview-Alpha Elementary & Junior High School is the sole elementary school, serving grades PK-6 with 295 students. It also has a low 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.6%. While the school's test scores are mixed, with some grade levels performing above the district and state averages in LEAP Math and ELA, others are below. Both schools face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students, and addressing the root causes of the low academic achievement and high absenteeism rates should be a priority for the district and community.
