Better than 8% of Louisiana elementary schools

Summary

Pine Grove Elementary School is a public elementary school in Shreveport, Louisiana, serving 391 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Caddo Parish school district, which is ranked 84 out of 118 districts in the state.

Despite being part of the Caddo Parish district, Pine Grove Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Louisiana elementary schools over the past decade, maintaining a 0-1 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 21.9% to 49.4% in recent years, and students performing significantly below state and district averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts assessments. With 89% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Pine Grove Elementary serves a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

When comparing Pine Grove Elementary to other nearby schools in the Caddo Parish district, it consistently underperforms. For example, Claiborne Fundamental Elementary, a magnet school just 5.5 miles away, ranked in the top 5% of Louisiana elementary schools and had significantly higher proficiency rates in both Mathematics and ELA. Addressing the chronic absenteeism and providing targeted interventions and support could be crucial for improving outcomes for the students at Pine Grove Elementary.
