Pine View Middle School

Public Grades 4-6
Summary

Pine View Middle School in Covington, LA, serves 694 students in grades 4 through 6 within the highly-ranked St. Tammany Parish school district, and is located in an area where a significant majority of students (61.53%) are economically disadvantaged.

One of the most important things to know about Pine View is that its academic proficiency rates are consistently lower than the district average and far below those of nearby schools serving the same grades. For example, in Mathematics, Pine View’s proficiency rate is 60%, compared to the district average of 71% and an average of about 87% at nearby 4-6 schools like Gayle Sloan Middle School and Lake Harbor Middle School. Similarly, in English Language Arts, Pine View’s rate is 69% versus the district’s 79% and nearby schools’ average of 88%. This performance gap is the school’s most striking feature when compared to its neighbors. Additionally, Pine View has a higher student-to-teacher ratio (13.7) than most nearby competitors, which may mean less individualized attention for students.

A major concern is the school’s high and rapidly rising chronic absenteeism rate, which has more than tripled from 8.1% in 2021-2022 to 27.7% in 2024-2025. This rate is significantly higher than the district average (21.2%) and dramatically higher than other area 4-6 schools, which have rates between 9.0% and 20.3%. High absenteeism directly correlates with lower academic performance, and this trend likely explains some of the school’s difficulty in keeping pace. On a positive note, Pine View shows a relative strength in 6th Grade English Language Arts, with a proficiency rate of 72%—close to the state average of 74%. However, the school feeds into William Pitcher Junior High School, which also struggles with high poverty and low test scores, creating a compounding challenge for students in the Covington area.
