Summary

St. Amant Primary School in Saint Amant, LA, is a top-performing elementary school serving 585 students in grades PK-5 within the highly-ranked Ascension Parish school district. This school stands out for its exceptional academic results and strong support for all students, consistently earning 4 or 5 stars in 9 of the last 10 school years and ranking in the 88th percentile statewide.

What truly sets St. Amant Primary apart from nearby schools is its remarkable performance with special education students, ranking in the 93rd percentile statewide—far higher than any other school in the area. The school also achieves outstanding academic results, with 85% proficiency in English Language Arts and 80% in Mathematics, both well above district and state averages. Its 79% proficiency in Social Studies is the highest among all nearby elementary schools, including Galvez Primary School, its closest academic peer. Additionally, the school boasts a chronic absenteeism rate of just 8.7%, significantly lower than the district average of 11.6% and a fraction of the state average of 22.5%, indicating strong student and family engagement.

While St. Amant Primary has seen a slight dip in its overall state ranking from 40th to 85th in recent years, this is not due to declining performance—test scores have remained stable and high. Instead, it reflects other schools improving at a faster pace. For context, Sugar Mill Primary School, just 6.7 miles away, has significantly lower proficiency rates (67% in Math) and higher chronic absenteeism (11.7%), highlighting that even within a top district, school-level performance varies. St. Amant Primary’s balanced strength across all student subgroups, including low socio-economic status students (89th percentile), makes it a standout choice for families seeking a high-quality, equitable education.
