Summary

Springfield High School is a small, rural high school in Springfield, LA, serving 400 students in grades 9-12 as part of the highly-rated Livingston Parish school district. This school stands out for its exceptional support of all students, particularly those with special needs and those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, consistently earning 4-star ratings and ranking in the 71st percentile statewide. A key strength is its 94% graduation rate, which far exceeds the state average of 85%, and an impressive 0.0% dropout rate, showing that nearly every student stays on track to earn a diploma.

When compared to nearby schools, Springfield High performs solidly within its district. For example, it outperforms Albany High School in core subjects like Algebra I (73% proficiency vs. 70%) and English II (80% vs. 74%). However, it trails the top-performing Doyle High School, which achieved 94% proficiency in Algebra I. The contrast is even starker with neighboring Tangipahoa Parish schools like Independence High Magnet and Hammond High Magnet School, which rank in the bottom 10-20% of the state, highlighting Springfield High as a strong performer in the region.

The most significant challenge facing the school is a high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.4%, nearly double the district average of 13.3%. This issue has risen alongside an increase in economic need, with 71% of students now receiving free or reduced lunch. While the school has maintained strong academic outcomes despite this, addressing attendance is the single most impactful step it could take to improve its overall performance and potentially return to its former 5-star status. Overall, Springfield High is a strong, effective school that excels in graduating its students and supporting its most vulnerable populations.
