Summary

East Feliciana High School in Jackson, LA, is a small, rural school serving 231 students in grades 9-12 within the East Feliciana Parish school district, where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has recently shown a dramatic turnaround, jumping from a 1-star rating to a 2-star rating in the 2025-2026 school year, its best performance in nearly a decade. This improvement is particularly notable given that the school faces significant challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate that has soared to 29.8%, nearly double the state average, and a volatile graduation rate that swings from the high 70s to high 80s from year to year.

One of the most striking findings is the school's exceptional performance in Algebra I, where 72% of students are proficient—well above the state average of 65% and competitive with the much higher-ranked Zachary High School (74%). However, this success is not mirrored across all subjects; U.S. History proficiency sits at just 17%, a staggering 38 percentage points below the state average. This "tale of two subjects" suggests that the math department has found effective strategies that could be replicated in other areas. Additionally, the school's small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 12.6:1, are not translating into overall academic gains, especially when compared to the nearby West Feliciana High School, which has an even lower ratio of 8.5:1 and consistently higher performance.

When compared to other schools in the area, East Feliciana stands out for its recent progress but also for its stark contrast with Slaughter Community Charter School, a district peer just 8 miles away that earns a 5-star rating despite a much higher student-teacher ratio of 24.2:1. This highlights how socioeconomic factors, such as the high poverty rate at East Feliciana, play a major role in school outcomes. For parents, the key takeaway is that East Feliciana is a school on the rise, with a clear bright spot in math, but it must address chronic absenteeism and uneven subject performance to build on its recent gains and provide a more consistent educational experience.
