Summary

Collegiate Baton Rouge is a high school in Baton Rouge, LA, serving 530 students in grades 9-12, and operates as its own single-school district, Collegiate Baton Rouge, in an area where over 96% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school is showing a remarkable turnaround. After years of ranking in the bottom 20th percentile statewide, it jumped to the 37th percentile in the 2025-2026 school year, earning a 2-star rating. This is a significant improvement compared to nearby schools like Belaire High School and Istrouma High School, which continue to struggle in the bottom 10th percentile. A key strength is its exceptional performance with Special Education students, ranking in the 68th percentile—far higher than its overall rank. The school also maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 11.7:1, which is lower than high-performing schools like Baton Rouge Magnet High School (17.6:1) and Madison Preparatory Academy (16.8:1), suggesting a focus on individualized attention.

Despite these gains, the school faces a major challenge with chronic absenteeism at 36.5%, which is much higher than the state average of 22.5% and more than double the rate at Madison Prep (17.5%). This is a critical area for improvement, as the school has managed to raise its graduation rate to 86.3% (exceeding the state average) and show strength in U.S. History (56% proficiency, above the state average) even with this attendance issue. For parents, Collegiate Baton Rouge represents a school on an upward trajectory with targeted support for special education, but one where addressing attendance is key to unlocking even greater success.
