Summary

South Larose Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 366 students in grades PK-5 in Larose, Louisiana, which is part of the Lafourche Parish school district. This high-performing school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in both Math and English Language Arts proficiency, with 83% of students proficient or better in Math and 73% in ELA in the 2024-2025 school year.

South Larose Elementary's strong academic performance extends across different student subgroups, ranking in the top 30% of Louisiana elementary schools for both male and female students, and the top 40% for Hispanic students and top 35% for white students. The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.3, compared to nearby Lockport Upper Elementary (16.2) and Golden Meadow Upper Elementary (12.1). Despite these strengths, the school faces challenges with a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 65.3% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Lafourche Parish district, South Larose Elementary stands out as a strong performer, particularly in its Math and ELA proficiency rates, which are significantly higher than nearby schools like Galliano Elementary and Golden Meadow Upper Elementary. While the school has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking, from #386 out of 727 Louisiana elementary schools in 2021-2022 to #172 out of 666 in 2024-2025, there are still areas for potential improvement, such as reducing chronic absenteeism and further closing achievement gaps for certain student subgroups.
