Summary

Vidalia High School is a public high school located in Vidalia, Louisiana, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 424 students. The school is part of the Concordia Parish School District, which is ranked 61 out of 118 districts in Louisiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Vidalia High School has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years, with its highest ranking being 145 out of 313 Louisiana high schools in the 2018-2019 school year.

Vidalia High School's student performance, as measured by proficiency rates on LEAP/End-of-Course (EOC) exams, is generally lower than the Concordia Parish and Louisiana state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Vidalia High School's proficiency rates were lower than the parish and state averages in all subject areas, ranging from 33% in U.S. History to 59% in English I. The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, with the percentage of chronically absent students ranging from 21.9% to 35.2% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, Vidalia High School's four-year graduation rate has been slightly lower than the state average, ranging from 79.4% to 83.3% over the past few years, and its dropout rate has been higher than the state average, ranging from 3.3% to 5.2% in recent years.

Interestingly, Ferriday High School, another high school in the Concordia Parish School District, has similar demographic and performance characteristics to Vidalia High School. Both schools have lower student performance, higher chronic absenteeism, and lower graduation rates compared to the district and state averages. This suggests that the challenges faced by Vidalia High School may be systemic within the district. Additionally, Vidalia High School has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 72.66% to 78.07% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, which likely contributes to the school's challenges in student performance and attendance.
