Summary

Lacache Middle School in Bourg, LA, serves 225 students in grades 5 through 8 and is part of the Terrebonne Parish school district, which ranks in the top 22% of Louisiana districts.

Lacache Middle School stands out for its exceptional mathematics performance, particularly in lower grades. In the 2025-2026 school year, 76% of students were proficient in math, outperforming both the district (69%) and state (62%). This strength is most notable in 6th grade, where 89% of students achieved proficiency—18 points above the district average and significantly higher than nearby schools like Evergreen Junior High School (60%) and Houma Junior High School (62%). However, this math advantage diminishes by 8th grade, where proficiency drops to 63%, closer to the district average. The school has also shown strong support for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the 94th percentile statewide for this group in 2024-2025, and has made impressive gains with special education students, jumping from the 26th percentile to the 86th percentile over two years.

Despite these strengths, Lacache faces significant challenges. The school experienced a sharp decline in its overall state ranking, dropping from the 87th percentile (4 stars) in 2024-2025 to the 62nd percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026. Chronic absenteeism is a major concern, with 34.3% of students chronically absent—the highest rate among its Terrebonne Parish peers and well above the state average of 22.5%. This issue is likely contributing to the school's recent academic struggles. Nearby schools in the Lafourche Parish district, such as Lockport Middle School (ranked 92nd percentile), consistently outperform Lacache, highlighting potential district-level differences. Lacache's future success will depend on addressing absenteeism and stabilizing its performance to match the consistency of top-performing peers like Montegut Middle School.
