Summary

Haynesville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Haynesville, Louisiana, with 303 students enrolled. The school is part of the Claiborne Parish school district, which is ranked 97 out of 118 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Haynesville Elementary consistently outperforms the Claiborne Parish district and the state of Louisiana in both Math and English Language Arts proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, 65% of Haynesville students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 49% for the district and 70% for the state. However, the school has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.3% to 25.1% over the past few years, which is notably higher than the state average. Additionally, a large majority (67.76% to 80.41%) of Haynesville Elementary students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

Haynesville Elementary's statewide ranking has steadily declined from #190 in 2018-2019 to #464 in 2024-2025, with its star rating dropping from 4 to 2 over this period, suggesting the school is struggling to maintain its academic standards. While Haynesville Elementary generally outperforms the nearby Homer Elementary school, some schools in the neighboring Webster Parish district, such as North Webster Upper Elementary, demonstrate stronger academic outcomes.
