Summary

Leonville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Leonville, Louisiana, with 636 students enrolled. The school is part of the St. Landry Parish school district, which is ranked 48 out of 118 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Leonville Elementary consistently outperforms the St. Landry Parish and Louisiana state averages in both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across multiple grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, 78% of Leonville students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 67% in the district and 70% statewide. The school also has relatively low dropout rates, ranging from 0.7% to 6.0% in recent years, which is lower than the district and state averages. However, Leonville's chronic absenteeism rates are higher than the state average, though still lower than many of the nearby schools.

Compared to other elementary schools in the area, such as Port Barre Elementary and Ecole Saint-Landry, Leonville Elementary stands out as a higher-performing school, particularly in Math and ELA proficiency. While the school's consistent high performance suggests it is providing a quality education, the district should investigate the factors contributing to the significant performance gap between Leonville's different student subgroups to address any equity issues. Additionally, the broader issue of chronic absenteeism in the region is a concern that the district should work to address.
