Summary

Jackson Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the East Feliciana Parish district of Louisiana. With 266 students, the school has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages on key metrics like test scores and chronic absenteeism.

Jackson Elementary School's academic performance has been a concern, with only 35% of students proficient in Mathematics and 58% proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to 50% and 69% in the district, and 60% and 70% statewide, respectively. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.3% to 24.6% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average.
