Summary

Pollock Elementary School in Pollock, LA, serves 421 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Grant Parish school district, and currently holds a 3-star rating, ranking in the 62nd percentile statewide.

Pollock Elementary’s standout strength is mathematics, with 74% of all students proficient—well above the district (57%) and state (62%) averages. This is especially impressive in 4th grade, where 84% of students are proficient, a score 20 points higher than nearby South Grant Elementary and surpassing several higher-ranked schools in Rapides Parish, such as J.I. Barron Senior Elementary (64%) and Tioga Elementary (63%). The school also excels at supporting students from low socio-economic backgrounds, who rank in the 70th percentile statewide—a 4-star performance that outpaces the school’s overall rank. Additionally, social studies scores have surged 28 points in two years, from 36% to 64% proficiency, suggesting a highly effective curriculum change. A favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.4:1—one of the lowest in the area—likely supports this targeted instruction.

However, chronic absenteeism is a persistent challenge at 21.8%, nearly matching the state average and notably higher than peers like Rosenthal Montessori Elementary (7.3%) and Ball Elementary (12.8%). While the school has rebounded strongly from a low point in 2022-2023, performance for White students is a relative weakness (35th percentile), contrasting with consistent support for Special Education students (55th percentile or higher for three years). Compared to district peer South Grant Elementary, Pollock is stronger in math and social studies but weaker in English Language Arts (72% vs. 80%) and faces greater attendance issues.
