Summary

LaSalle Elementary School is a public elementary school in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, serving 420 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the East Baton Rouge Parish school district, which is ranked 81 out of 118 districts in the state.

LaSalle Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools, with a SchoolDigger rating fluctuating between 1 and 2 stars out of 5, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state. The school struggles with the academic performance of certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, who rank in the bottom 10-15% of Louisiana elementary schools. In contrast, the school's White student population performs relatively well, ranking in the top 20% of Louisiana elementary schools. LaSalle Elementary's proficiency rates in LEAP Mathematics and English Language Arts assessments are also consistently lower than the East Baton Rouge Parish and Louisiana state averages.

Compared to nearby public schools like Melrose Elementary, Villa del Rey Elementary, and Broadmoor Elementary, LaSalle Elementary School generally performs worse in terms of statewide rankings, test scores, and student group performance. However, these nearby schools also face similar challenges, with high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage. The nearby Westdale Heights Academic Magnet and B.R. Foreign Language Acad. Immersion Magnet schools, as well as the GEO Prep Mid-City of Greater Baton Rouge charter school, significantly outperform LaSalle Elementary, suggesting that targeted educational approaches and resources can lead to better student outcomes.
