Summary

St. Landry Charter School is an elementary school located in Opelousas, Louisiana, serving 311 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the St. Landry Primary School District, which is ranked 107 out of 118 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the district, St. Landry Charter School consistently underperforms the state average in both Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's Mathematics proficiency rate was 34% compared to the state's 60%, and its ELA proficiency rate was 51% compared to the state's 70%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as female students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Additionally, St. Landry Charter School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.6% to 24.6% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the St. Landry Parish district, such as Church Point Elementary, Port Barre Elementary, and Grand Coteau Elementary, generally outperform St. Landry Charter School in both Mathematics and ELA proficiency. For instance, in the 2024-2025 school year, Port Barre Elementary had an 80% Mathematics proficiency rate and a 72% ELA proficiency rate, significantly higher than St. Landry Charter School. This disparity in performance may be attributed to the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at St. Landry Charter School, which could contribute to the school's academic struggles.
