Summary

Delta Charter School MST is an alternative public charter school in Ferriday, Louisiana, serving 500 students in grades K-12. The school stands out for its consistently high graduation rates, ranging from 82.7% to 94.9% over the past 5 years, which are higher than the nearby Harrisonburg High School (83.2%).

While Delta Charter School MST generally performs below the state average on LEAP assessments, it outperforms some nearby schools in certain areas, such as 5th grade English Language Arts (70% proficient vs 72% state) and 8th grade English Language Arts (67% proficient vs 70% state). The school also has a lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, ranging from 14.6 to 15.8 over the past 3 years.

The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Delta Charter School MST, ranging from 52.2% to 63.45% over the past 3 years, suggests that the school serves a relatively disadvantaged population, which may contribute to the lower academic performance compared to the state average. However, the school's consistently high graduation rates and some areas of academic performance that exceed nearby schools indicate that it is providing valuable educational opportunities for its students.
