Elementary Schools in Sabine Parish

The Sabine Parish school district in Louisiana is home to two elementary schools: Zwolle Elementary School and Many Elementary School. Both schools serve students from prekindergarten through 4th grade and are part of the Sabine Parish school district, which is ranked 36th out of 118 districts in Louisiana and has a 4-star rating.

Based on the available data, Zwolle Elementary School appears to be the standout performer in the district. The school consistently ranks higher than Many Elementary School in the statewide SchoolDigger rankings, placing around the top 50% of Louisiana elementary schools. Zwolle Elementary School also outperforms Many Elementary School and the Sabine Parish average in several key test score metrics, including mathematics proficiency for 3rd and 4th grades and English Language Arts proficiency for all grades and 4th grade. Additionally, Zwolle Elementary School has a lower student-teacher ratio of 14.4, compared to 16.5 at Many Elementary School.

However, both schools face similar challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 24.6%, which is significantly above the state average. Additionally, the schools serve predominantly low-income student populations, with over 60% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. These socioeconomic factors may have an impact on the schools' overall performance and the challenges they face. Despite these challenges, the Sabine Parish school district as a whole is ranked relatively high, suggesting that the district may have some strengths that could be leveraged to improve the performance of all its schools.
