Summary

Fairview-Alpha Elementary & Junior High School is a public school serving grades PK-6 in Campti, Louisiana, part of the Natchitoches Parish school district. With 295 students, the school faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, lower test scores compared to the district and state averages, and a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Fairview-Alpha's test scores in Mathematics and English Language Arts are generally lower than the Natchitoches Parish and Louisiana state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 54% of Fairview-Alpha students were proficient or better in Mathematics compared to 62% in the district and 60% statewide. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, suggesting it is struggling to keep up with the performance of other schools in the state.

Interestingly, Fairview-Alpha's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American students performing better than White students and special education students performing better than the overall student population. When compared to nearby schools like Provencal Elementary & Junior High School and N.S.U. Elementary Lab School, Fairview-Alpha's academic performance is generally lower, with higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates at the other schools. Addressing the school's high chronic absenteeism and high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may be crucial for improving its overall academic outcomes.
