Summary

Thibodaux High School in Thibodaux, LA, is a large public high school serving 1,306 students in grades 9-12 within the high-performing Lafourche Parish school district, where about 63% of students come from low socio-economic backgrounds.

Thibodaux High School is a school of notable contrasts, excelling in specific areas while facing challenges in others. It stands out for its exceptional support of vulnerable student groups, ranking 4th in the state for serving homeless students and 47th for special education students—both earning 4-star ratings. The school also performs strongly with Hispanic students, ranking 28th statewide. However, these successes are tempered by significant struggles: the school has a chronic absenteeism rate of 28%, which is higher than the district average of 24.6% and far above St. James High School's 16.7%. Additionally, performance for multi-racial students has dropped sharply to a 1-star rating, and the dropout rate of 3.5% is nearly double the district average of 1.9%.

Academically, the school shows mixed results. While proficiency in Algebra I (76%) and English I (72%) is strong, Geometry (52%) lags behind the state average of 57%. The school's overall state rank has slipped from a high of 50th in 2018-2019 to 116th currently, despite strong subgroup performances. This suggests that while Thibodaux has effective targeted programs for certain populations, it struggles with consistency across all student groups. For parents, this means the school offers outstanding support for specific needs—particularly for homeless and special education students—but families should be aware of the ongoing challenges with attendance and overall academic consistency that set it apart from nearby schools like Central Lafourche High School.
