Summary

Montegut Elementary School is a small, rural school in Montegut, LA, serving 187 students from Pre-K through 4th grade as part of the Terrebonne Parish school district, and it has shown remarkable academic growth in recent years.

This school stands out most for its exceptional math performance, with 86% of students proficient in math—well above the district (69%) and state (62%) averages. This achievement is especially impressive given that over 80% of students come from low socio-economic backgrounds, and the school has earned a 4-star rating for effectively serving these students. Montegut has climbed from the 54th percentile to the 81st percentile in just two years, a faster improvement than nearby Upper Little Caillou Elementary School, which dropped from the 83rd to the 68th percentile over the same period. Its small size (187 students) and low student-teacher ratio of 13.3 likely help teachers provide the individualized attention driving these gains.

However, the school faces challenges. Chronic absenteeism is a concern at 27.1%, higher than the state average of 22.5% and above peers like Bourg Elementary School (18.9%). Academically, math is a clear strength, but social studies proficiency (62%) lags behind top performers like Dularge Elementary School (82%). While the school excels with many student groups, its white student population has a lower ranking (34th percentile), suggesting instructional strategies may need adjustment. Overall, Montegut Elementary is a school on a strong upward trajectory, with standout math results and a proven ability to support students from all backgrounds, though addressing attendance and social studies could unlock even greater success.
