Summary

Greenbrier Elementary School in Baton Rouge, LA, serves 317 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade and is part of the East Baton Rouge Parish school district, where it has shown a clear upward trajectory in state rankings over the past decade.

Greenbrier stands out for its strong academic performance in core subjects, especially given that 88.33% of its students are eligible for free or reduced lunch. In the most recent testing data, the school achieved a 66% proficiency rate in Math and 72% in English Language Arts (ELA), significantly outperforming the average of its six comparable district peers (47% in Math and 54% in ELA). This is particularly impressive when compared to nearby schools like Twin Oaks Elementary School and Riveroaks Elementary School, which have lower poverty rates but lower proficiency scores. Greenbrier also excels with its African American student population, ranking in the 70th percentile statewide for this subgroup. Additionally, the school has dramatically improved its student-teacher ratio from 20.1 in 2022-2023 to 13.2 in 2024-2025, one of the lowest among its district peers.

Despite these successes, Greenbrier faces two key challenges. Chronic absenteeism stands at 21.7%, higher than several higher-performing district peers like Twin Oaks (17.9%) and Riveroaks (19.4%). The school also struggles in Social Studies, with a 43% proficiency rate that falls below the district average (46%) and state average (55%). For context, nearby GEO Prep Academy of Greater Baton Rouge, a charter school with a lower poverty rate (70.61%) and much lower chronic absenteeism (8.6%), outperforms Greenbrier in Social Studies (59% vs. 43%), though Greenbrier matches or exceeds it in Math and ELA. Overall, Greenbrier is a school achieving above-average results through effective instruction, but it must address absenteeism and Social Studies to continue its upward trend.
