Summary

Springfield Elementary School in Springfield, LA, serves 569 students from Pre-K through 4th grade within the highly-ranked Livingston Parish school district, which is rated 15th out of 116 districts in Louisiana. The school has shown a remarkable upward trajectory, climbing from the 48th percentile statewide to the 73rd percentile in the 2025-2026 school year, earning a 4-star rating. This is especially impressive given that approximately 83% of students come from low-income households, a context where strong academic performance is not always the norm.

One of the school's standout achievements is its exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 12.8%, which is dramatically better than the state average of 22.5% and even slightly below its own district average. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools in the Tangipahoa Parish district, where rates are alarmingly high—for example, Lucille Nesom Memorial at 35.4% and Midway Elementary School at 39.6%. Academically, Springfield Elementary consistently outperforms the state average in core subjects, with 77% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 65% in Social Studies. While Math proficiency (73% in 4th grade) is slightly below the district average, it still exceeds the state average, and the school's performance far surpasses that of nearby Tangipahoa schools like Woodland Park Magnet, which has only 31% Math proficiency.

The school also excels in supporting specific student groups, ranking in the 91st percentile for multi-racial students and the 79th percentile for low socioeconomic status students, both earning 4- or 5-star ratings. Special education students have also seen significant improvement, moving from a 2-star rating to a 4-star rating in just two years. The only area of relative weakness is performance for White students, which ranks in the 49th percentile. Overall, Springfield Elementary demonstrates that effective school culture and district support can drive strong outcomes even in a high-poverty community, making it a standout choice compared to struggling nearby schools in Tangipahoa Parish.
