Summary

Rosenwald Elementary School in New Roads, LA, serves 303 students from Pre-K through 6th grade and is part of the Pointe Coupee Parish school district, a district ranked in the bottom 30% of the state. The school faces significant challenges, with over 91% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and it has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of elementary schools in Louisiana for the past decade.

The most critical issue at Rosenwald is a crisis-level chronic absenteeism rate of 48.5% for the 2024-2025 school year, which is more than double the state average of 22.5%. This rate is dramatically higher than nearby schools like Valverda Elementary School (21.8% chronic absenteeism) and Rougon Elementary School (27.5%), and it has remained above 45% for five consecutive years. Academic performance is also critically low, with only 34% of students proficient in Math and 43% in ELA, compared to Valverda Elementary's 71% and 74% proficiency rates, respectively. The gap is even wider when compared to high-performing Bains Elementary School in the West Feliciana Parish district, which achieved 89% in Math and 83% in ELA.

Despite these challenges, there is a glimmer of hope: 58% of 6th graders at Rosenwald were proficient in ELA in the 2025-2026 school year, a rate that approaches the state average of 74% and stands out as a notable strength. This suggests that a specific teacher or program may be working well for this group and could serve as a model for improvement in other grades. However, the school's decade-long stagnation in the bottom 10% of the state indicates that previous interventions have not been effective, and addressing the attendance crisis remains the single most critical lever for turning around the school's performance.
