With 299 students, the school has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Louisiana elementary schools over the past decade, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Boothville-Venice Elementary stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outpacing the state averages in both Math and English Language Arts proficiency across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 72% in Math and 73% in ELA, compared to the state averages of 60% and 70% respectively. The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.9 to 20 students per teacher, better than the state average. Additionally, the school has shown strong performance across various student subgroups, ranking in the top 25% of Louisiana elementary schools for Asian students, English Language Learners, and Special Education students in recent years.

When compared to the closest comparable school, South Plaquemines Elementary, Boothville-Venice Elementary demonstrates significantly higher test scores and a stronger overall ranking. However, the school has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism rates in recent years, reaching 35.6% in 2023-2024, which, while still lower than the state average of 37.5%, may be an area of concern that the school and district should address to ensure continued academic success.

Open Quote Two of our children go there & they absolutely love going to this school. They have attended a different Elementary & Pre-K School, which they really enjoyed as well. However there's one BIG difference between the 2 schools that makes BVES stand out more.... the "unity" & "feeling as is the whole school is like 1 big family", which the other school didn't have that feeling bc it was "too big" (student/ teacher ratio) & the students have more 1on 1 with their students @ BVES. As of yesterday,10-21-14, BVES "School Performance Score" is a 108.7 -Rated "A"!! The students are very herd working as well as the teachers, the staff, & of course, the principal, Mrs. Proutt! <3 Close Quote
