Best Elementary Schools in Louisiana for African American Students

Check out our new feature available only on SchoolDigger: rankings for different groups of students in Louisiana!

Every year, the Louisiana Dept of Education shares test results for various student groups in each school. We use these results to find out which schools do best for each group and list them from the best to the worst.

Additionally, we also compare the performance of the subgroup to the performance of the school as a whole. This makes it easy to see if, for example, African American students are overperforming or underperforming their peers in each school.

SchoolDigger updates Louisiana rankings as soon as the Louisiana Dept of Education releases new LEAP test scores each year. The current rankings are based on scores released Monday, July 6, 2026.

Be the first to know when we post new rankings!

Rankings updated: Louisiana rankings were updated on September 12, 2026 with the addition of grade 3-8 science and High School Civics test scores
