Summary

West Feliciana High School in Saint Francisville, LA, is a small public high school serving 591 students in grades 9-12 within the highly-rated West Feliciana Parish school district, which ranks in the 94th percentile statewide. The school stands out for its exceptional student-to-teacher ratio of 8.5:1, which is dramatically lower than nearby schools like Zachary High School (15.6:1) and Slaughter Community Charter School (24.2:1), suggesting a highly personalized learning environment with more individual attention for students.

Academically, West Feliciana is a model of consistency, ranking in the top 15% of Louisiana high schools for 8 of the last 10 years and outperforming its largest nearby competitor, Zachary High, in nearly every core subject on LEAP exams. The most significant gaps are in Geometry (78% vs. 71% proficient), U.S. History (80% vs. 62%), and Biology (73% vs. 72%). The school also maintains a graduation rate consistently above 92% with an exceptionally low dropout rate of 1.1%, far below the state average of 3.1%. However, a notable concern is the chronic absenteeism rate of 22.2%, which is nearly identical to the state average and significantly higher than nearby high-performing schools like Zachary (15.0%) and Slaughter Community Charter (14.5%).

While West Feliciana excels for its general population, subgroup performance data reveals a challenge: the school's performance for low socio-economic status students dropped from the 86th percentile to the 64th percentile, indicating a need to better support economically disadvantaged students. Interestingly, nearby Slaughter Community Charter School achieves comparable or better test scores with a higher student-teacher ratio (24.2:1) and higher poverty rate (51.4%), presenting a valuable case study for West Feliciana. In contrast, East Feliciana High School, just 11 miles away, faces significant challenges with a 90.5% poverty rate and 76.9% graduation rate, highlighting West Feliciana's role as a beacon of high performance in a region where other schools are struggling profoundly.
