Summary

Airline High School is a public high school located in Bossier City, Louisiana, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 1,951 students. The school is part of the Bossier Parish school district, which is ranked 46 out of 118 districts in Louisiana and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Airline High School has consistently ranked in the top 100 high schools in Louisiana over the past several years, with a current ranking of 118 out of 329 schools, placing it in the top 35% of high schools in the state. The school's performance on End-of-Course (EOC) exams is also noteworthy, with proficiency rates exceeding the Bossier Parish and Louisiana averages in most subject areas. Additionally, Airline High School has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 82.7% to 89.4% over the past few years, which is on par with or exceeding the Bossier Parish and state averages.

While Airline High School performs well overall, the school's lower rankings and proficiency rates for Asian and English Language Learner students suggest that these subgroups may require additional support or targeted interventions to improve their academic outcomes. Additionally, the school has experienced an increase in chronic absenteeism over the past few years, with rates ranging from 20.9% to 35.6%, which is higher than the state average and may be an area of concern. Compared to the nearby Bossier High School, Airline High School's performance is generally stronger, with Bossier High School consistently ranking in the bottom third of Louisiana high schools and having significantly lower proficiency rates on EOC exams.
