Summary

Church Point Elementary School is a PK-5 school in Church Point, LA, serving 491 students within the high-performing Acadia Parish school district, where over 85% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school currently holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 49th percentile statewide, showing improvement from a low of the 24th percentile a few years ago, but it still trails most nearby district peers like Richard Elementary (86th percentile), Mire Elementary (74th percentile), and Branch Elementary (59th percentile).

The most notable feature of Church Point Elementary is its split performance in core subjects. In Math, the school achieves a 65% proficiency rate, which is above both the district (64%) and state (62%) averages—a consistent strength over the past four years. However, its English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate of 61% falls well below the district and state averages of 70%. This gap is unique among nearby schools, which all perform at or above district averages in both subjects. The school also excels with its Hispanic student population, who ranked in the 80th percentile statewide in 2025-2026, a stark contrast to the school's overall performance and a potential model for improvement.

A significant challenge is chronic absenteeism, which sits at 27.0%—higher than the state average of 22.5% and much higher than nearby Cankton Elementary (12.3%) and Mire Elementary (16.9%). This high absenteeism, combined with high poverty, likely contributes to the low ELA scores, as literacy depends heavily on consistent attendance. The school's success in Math suggests that when students are present, instruction is effective, providing a foundation to build upon. Replicating the strategies that work for Math and for Hispanic students across all subjects and demographics, while tackling absenteeism, will be key to raising the school's overall rating.
