Summary

Neville High School is a public high school in Monroe, Louisiana, serving 1,107 students in grades 9-12. As part of the City of Monroe School District, which has a 1-star rating, Neville High School has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, with its highest ranking being 93 out of 313 Louisiana high schools in the 2018-2019 school year.

Neville High School consistently outperforms the City of Monroe School District and the state of Louisiana in end-of-course (EOC) test scores across various subjects, including Algebra I, Geometry, English II, U.S. History, English I, and Biology. The school's performance is particularly strong in English subjects, with 84% proficiency in EOC/English I in 2022-2023, compared to 61% for the district and 67% for the state. Neville High School also has consistently strong performance across different student subgroups, including female, male, Asian, African American, and white students. However, when compared to high schools in the neighboring Ouachita Parish district, such as West Ouachita High School and Sterlington High School, Neville High School's performance is not as strong, particularly in subjects like Algebra I, Geometry, and English II.

Despite Neville High School's strong academic performance, the school faces challenges related to socioeconomic factors and chronic absenteeism. The school has seen an increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 35% in 2021-2022 to 58.18% in 2023-2024, suggesting that the school is serving a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. Additionally, Neville High School has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, from 21.9% in 2022-2023 to 30.1% in 2023-2024, which may be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance and an area of focus for improvement.
