Summary

Henry Mayfield Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Slidell, Louisiana, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 793 students. The school is part of the St. Tammany Parish school district, which is ranked 19th out of 118 districts in Louisiana and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

While the school's test scores are generally lower than the St. Tammany Parish and Louisiana state averages, it performs better than some nearby schools, such as Oak Park Elementary, Combre-Fondel Elementary, and Fairview Elementary. However, the school lags behind other nearby schools, such as Welsh Elementary and LeBleu Settlement Elementary, which consistently outperform Henry Mayfield Elementary in both test scores and other key metrics.

The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (over 60%) suggests that socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the lower academic performance. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, which are consistently higher than the state average, present an opportunity for targeted interventions to improve student learning and achievement. By addressing these challenges and learning from the successes of nearby high-performing schools, Henry Mayfield Elementary can work to provide a better educational experience for its students.
