Sunset Acres Elementary School

Public Grades
Summary

Sunset Acres Elementary School is a public elementary school in Shreveport, Louisiana, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 267 students. The school is part of the Caddo Parish school district, which is ranked 90 out of 122 districts in Louisiana and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Sunset Acres Elementary School consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Louisiana, with student performance on standardized tests significantly below the Caddo Parish and Louisiana state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. The school's rankings for subgroups such as female students, male students, African American students, special education students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds are particularly low, with rankings ranging from 297 to 718 out of 724-735 Louisiana elementary schools. This is likely due to the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 80.97% to 89.89% over the past three school years.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Caddo Parish district, such as Caddo Heights Math/Science Elementary School, Atkins Technology Elementary School, and Bethune/Oak Park Elementary, also perform significantly below the state averages on standardized tests. However, Claiborne Fundamental Elementary School, located about 2 miles away but in a different district (Recovery School District-LDE), consistently ranks among the top-performing elementary schools in the state. This suggests that factors beyond just the district or geographic location may be contributing to the low performance of Sunset Acres Elementary School and other nearby schools.
