Summary

The NET Charter High School in New Orleans, LA, is a small alternative high school serving 164 students in grades 9 through 12 under the RSD-Educators for Quality Alternatives district, designed specifically for students who have not succeeded in traditional school settings.

This school serves a highly vulnerable population, with over 80% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The data reveals significant challenges: the graduation rate is just 33.3%, compared to the state average of 85%, and the dropout rate of 21.3% is nearly seven times the state average. Academic proficiency is profoundly low across all subjects—only 15% of students are proficient in Algebra I, compared to 67% at nearby Eleanor McMain Secondary School. The school ranks in the 2nd percentile statewide, the lowest among all nearby schools. The most relevant comparison is with JCFA, another alternative school, which has a similar graduation rate (38.6%) and dropout rate (21.2%), but The NET's test scores are consistently lower, suggesting it may serve an even more academically at-risk population.

While the school's mission is to re-engage students who have left other schools, the outcomes indicate that translating that engagement into academic success and graduation remains a critical challenge. There is a glimmer of relative strength in Biology, where 26% of students are proficient—the smallest gap compared to the state average. However, the absence of chronic absenteeism data is a notable gap, as nearby alternative schools like JCFA have rates near 80%. For parents considering this school, it is essential to understand that The NET is not a traditional high school but a specialized program for students who need a second chance, though the data shows the model is still struggling to overcome the immense obstacles its students face.
