Summary

Oakshire Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 588 students in grades PK-6 in Houma, Louisiana. It is part of the Terrebonne Parish school district, which is ranked 18th out of 118 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Oakshire Elementary consistently outperforms the Terrebonne Parish and Louisiana state averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, Oakshire's overall Mathematics proficiency was 70% compared to 67% for Terrebonne Parish and 60% for Louisiana. Similarly, its overall ELA proficiency was 78% compared to 77% for Terrebonne Parish and 70% for Louisiana. The school's performance for African American and Hispanic students is particularly impressive, outpacing the state averages and ranking highly within Louisiana.

While Oakshire Elementary is a strong-performing school overall, the high chronic absenteeism rate, fluctuating between 21.9% and 29.4% over the past few years, is an area for improvement. The school's performance is generally stronger than the nearby Mulberry Elementary, Honduras Elementary, and Acadian Elementary, but it lags behind the top-performing schools in the district, like Coteau-Bayou Blue Elementary and Broadmoor Elementary.
