Based on the available data, Wilson Charter School appears to be a below-average performing elementary school. The school is ranked 500 out of 666 Louisiana elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and has a 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is concerning, with mathematics proficiency rates ranging from 32% to 58% and English Language Arts proficiency rates ranging from 44% to 67% across different grade levels, all below the state average. However, the school performed better on Algebra I (95% proficient) and English I (100% proficient) end-of-course exams compared to the state averages.
Additionally, Wilson Charter School faces challenges with student attendance, as the school had a 24.6% chronic absenteeism rate in the 2023-2024 school year. This high rate of chronic absenteeism may be contributing to the school's overall low academic performance and could be an area that the school and district need to address through targeted interventions and support for students and families.
