Summary

Bullion Primary School in Prairieville, LA, serves 586 students in grades PK through 5 and is part of the highly-rated Ascension Parish school district, which ranks 9th out of 116 districts in Louisiana. This school stands out as a top performer, consistently ranking in the top 3% of all Louisiana elementary schools over the past six years, including a current state rank of 17th out of 690 schools for the 2025-2026 school year. Bullion’s academic excellence is evident across all subjects, with 92% proficiency in Mathematics and 86% in Social Studies, outperforming many nearby schools like Sugar Mill Primary (67% Math) and Duplessis Primary (68% Math).

What truly sets Bullion apart is its exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 0.0% for the 2024-2025 school year, far below the district average of 11.6% and the state average of 22.5%. This near-perfect attendance is a powerful indicator of strong family engagement and a positive school culture, and it directly correlates with the school’s top-tier academic performance. In contrast, nearby schools like Central Primary (2.4% absenteeism) and Woodlawn Elementary (16.9%) struggle to match this level of consistency. Bullion also excels at supporting all students, earning 5-star ratings across all demographics, including Low SES students, who rank in the 97th percentile statewide—a remarkable achievement that highlights the school’s effective strategies for closing achievement gaps.

Additionally, Bullion is ranked 1st in the state for Military Connected Students, demonstrating specialized programs and a welcoming culture for military families. While other excellent schools in the area, such as Prairieville Primary and Oak Grove Primary, also perform well, Bullion’s consistent excellence across all metrics makes it a standout choice for parents seeking a world-class education in a supportive environment.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, December 11, 2021

My special needs (small) 9 year old was physically restrained by 3 adults for four minutes today and we were not informed until the end of the school day. The teacher contacted my husband by phone and said our son was kicking a desk then the teacher, he offered to come pick him up and the teacher told him no bc that would reward the behavior. According to the form they sent home with him that day, our son had two adults pinning him to the ground for 4 minutes less than 10 minutes after the phone call when we were told not to get him. We were never advised that they were allowed to do this to him, or that you're required to send a note from their physician if they should not be restrained due to psychological or medical reasons. He's been in school and therapy since he was three and never had to be physically restrained at any point. The principal was involved in restraining him as well as an adult male that we've never met. If you have any other options than Boullion, avoid this school! Our child thrived at Oak Grove, we only switched due to rezoning and have met several other parents that are in the process of moving to get back into the Oak Grove system. And to be fair, his other teachers are fantastic and have all said they don't have behavior issues with him. He's never been written up by other teachers until this one, and definitely never had to be physically restrained Close Quote
