Summary

Holly Ridge Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Rayville, Louisiana, with 222 students. Despite being part of the Richland Parish school district, which is ranked 85 out of 118 districts in the state, Holly Ridge Elementary has consistently outperformed the district and state averages on LEAP tests in both Mathematics and English Language Arts.

In the 2024-2025 school year, 62% of Holly Ridge students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 46% for Richland Parish and 60% for Louisiana. Similarly, 69% of Holly Ridge students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 56% for Richland Parish and 70% for Louisiana. This suggests the school may be implementing effective instructional practices that could be replicated at other schools in the district. However, the school's rankings for African American students and students of low socioeconomic status have been in the bottom half of the state, indicating potential equity issues that need to be addressed.

Compared to other elementary schools in the Richland Parish district, Holly Ridge Elementary generally outperforms Rayville Elementary and Delhi Elementary, which have lower test scores and rankings. However, Mangham Elementary has shown stronger academic performance in recent years, particularly in English Language Arts. Additionally, Holly Ridge Elementary has had higher chronic absenteeism and dropout rates than the state average, which are areas of concern that the school and district should prioritize.
