Summary

Jeanerette Senior High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Jeanerette, Louisiana, with 322 students enrolled. The school is part of the Iberia Parish school district, which is ranked 26th out of 118 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Jeanerette Senior High School has consistently underperformed compared to the Iberia Parish and Louisiana state averages on LEAP standardized tests, with proficiency rates below the district and state in both Math and English Language Arts, the school has performed relatively well for its African American student population, ranking in the top 40% of Louisiana high schools in recent years. However, its performance for other subgroups like female, male, and low-socioeconomic status students lags behind. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 18.6% to 27.5% in recent years, which is significantly above the state average.

Compared to other high-performing schools in the Iberia Parish district, such as Delcambre High School and Loreauville High School, Jeanerette Senior High School underperforms, with significantly higher academic proficiency rates, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism. Additionally, the school's performance has declined over the past decade, dropping from a 4-star rating in 2017-2018 to a 2-star rating in recent years, suggesting the school may be facing challenges in maintaining academic standards and student engagement.
