Summary

Woodmere School is an elementary school located in Harvey, Louisiana, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 718 students. It is part of the Jefferson Parish school district, which is ranked 73 out of 118 districts in Louisiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Woodmere School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 547 and 721 out of over 700 schools.

Woodmere School significantly underperforms the Jefferson Parish and Louisiana averages across both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 26% of Woodmere students were proficient or better in Math compared to 52% in Jefferson Parish and 60% statewide. Similarly, the school's ELA proficiency rate of 48% trails the district (62%) and state (70%) averages. Woodmere School also struggles to support its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Additionally, the school has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.4% to 31.4% over the past few years, significantly above the district and state averages.

When comparing Woodmere School to other nearby schools in the Jefferson Parish district, it becomes clear that Woodmere is an underperforming outlier. Schools like Congetta Trippe Janet Elementary, Allen Ellender School, and Laureate Academy Charter School significantly outperform Woodmere on key metrics such as test scores, subgroup performance, and chronic absenteeism. Addressing the school's underperformance will require a multifaceted approach that addresses the root causes of its challenges and leverages the resources and expertise of the district and community.
