Summary

Robinson Elementary School in Monroe, LA, serves 374 students in grades PK-5 within the Ouachita Parish School District, a district rated above average, though the school itself has faced challenges with a 1-star state rating for the past four years and currently sits at the 12th percentile statewide.

The most encouraging news at Robinson is a dramatic turnaround in chronic absenteeism, which dropped from 23.6% in 2022-2023 to just 11.8% in 2024-2025—a rate now far better than the district average of 18.5% and the state average of 22.5%. This is a standout success compared to nearby schools like Madison James Foster Elementary (37.3%) and Barkdull Faulk Elementary (28.1%). However, this improvement hasn't yet boosted overall test scores, creating a paradox where students are in class more but academic gains remain stagnant. Math is a relative strength, with a 43% proficiency rate that outpaces Riverbend Elementary (25%) and Madison James Foster Elementary (28%), while social studies is a critical weakness at 32% proficiency—far below the district (58%) and state (55%) averages, with only 18% of 4th graders proficient.

A nearby model for success is Swayze Elementary School, just 1.71 miles away, which serves a similarly high-poverty population but has jumped to the 47th percentile with a 75% ELA proficiency rate—21 points higher than Robinson's. This shows that high poverty is not an insurmountable barrier, and Robinson could look to Swayze for instructional strategies, especially in ELA and social studies. The school's performance for its African American students is a relative bright spot (25th percentile), but it struggles most with male students (10th percentile) and low socioeconomic status students (16th percentile), who make up the vast majority of the student body. As part of a strong district, Robinson has unique opportunities for support to turn its attendance gains into academic progress.
