Summary:
The Ascension Parish school district in Louisiana is home to 19 exceptional elementary schools serving grades PK-8, with the majority being PK-5. The district as a whole is ranked 12th out of 118 districts in Louisiana and is rated 5 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating a high-performing educational system.
Several schools stand out as top performers in the district, including Bullion Primary School, ranked 28th out of 666 Louisiana elementary schools, with 89-93% of students proficient or better in math and 87-93% proficient or better in English Language Arts. Other top-performing schools include Oak Grove Primary School, Spanish Lake Primary School, and Bluff Ridge Primary, all of which have exceptional test scores and 5 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars.
However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing and lower-performing schools in the district. For example, while the top schools have 85-93% proficiency in math and English Language Arts, some schools, such as Lowery Elementary School, have only 49-79% proficiency in these subjects. This disparity suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address the factors contributing to these differences in academic achievement across the Ascension Parish elementary schools.
