Summary

Kenilworth Science and Technology Academy is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with 693 students. While the school excels in certain end-of-course exams, its overall academic performance lags behind both the state averages and nearby public schools in the East Baton Rouge Parish district.

Kenilworth Science and Technology Academy has consistently underperformed compared to the state average in both Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's overall Mathematics proficiency was 55% compared to the state average of 60%, and its overall ELA proficiency was 60% compared to the state average of 70%. The school's performance is particularly weak in 5th grade Mathematics, where only 33% of students were proficient compared to the state average of 59%. However, the school excels in Algebra I and English I end-of-course exams, with 100% proficiency in both subjects, significantly higher than the state averages.

The school has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 24.6% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. Dropout rates have also been a concern, ranging from 3.3% to 4.3% over the past few years. While the nearby Cedarcrest-Southmoor Elementary, Woodlawn Elementary, and Parkview Elementary schools have higher proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism and dropout rates, Kenilworth Science and Technology Academy outperforms the nearby South Baton Rouge Charter Academy and Jefferson Terrace Academy, which have even lower academic performance and higher rates of chronic absenteeism and dropouts.
