Summary

Green Park Elementary School is a public elementary school in Metairie, Louisiana, serving 467 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Jefferson Parish school district.

While Green Park Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools, with below-average performance on LEAP tests in both Mathematics and English Language Arts, the school has shown some bright spots. Its Hispanic and English Language Learner student subgroups have performed better than the overall school ranking in recent years. However, the school's White student subgroup has consistently performed poorly, ranking in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools. Green Park Elementary also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which are significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, Green Park Elementary's performance is generally lower than schools like Phoebe Hearst School, Tom Benson School, and Bridgedale Elementary School, which have higher LEAP test scores and better overall rankings. However, Green Park Elementary does outperform some nearby schools, such as John Clancy/Joseph Maggiore Elementary School and Bissonet Plaza School, in certain subject areas and grade levels.
