Summary

Mamou High School is a public high school in Mamou, Louisiana, serving 451 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Evangeline Parish School District, which is ranked 45 out of 118 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mamou High School has consistently performed above the district and state averages in several academic areas, such as Algebra I, Geometry, and English I. The school has also maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 82.7% to 88.5% over the past few years, which is comparable to or higher than the graduation rates of nearby schools like Basile High School and Ville Platte High School. Additionally, Mamou High School has shown relatively strong performance among its subgroups, particularly in the areas of special education and African American students.

However, the school's statewide ranking has declined from 51 out of 313 Louisiana high schools in 2018-2019 to 164 out of 329 in 2024-2025, suggesting that it may be facing challenges in keeping up with the performance of other high schools in the state. Furthermore, Mamou High School has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 19.8% in 2022-2023 to 39.1% in 2023-2024, which could impact the school's academic performance and overall student outcomes. When compared to other nearby schools, such as Elton High School, Oakdale High School, and Eunice High School, Mamou High School has shown stronger academic performance in certain areas, but may need to address the academic needs of its socioeconomically disadvantaged student population, with 64.52% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.
