Summary:
The 70052 zip code in Louisiana has only one school, Gramercy Elementary School, a public middle school serving grades 4-6 with a total enrollment of 439 students. While the school's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly below the St. James Parish district and state averages, it has some strengths, particularly in 4th and 6th-grade Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates, which often exceed the district and state benchmarks.
However, the school faces some challenges, including a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.6% and a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with a free/reduced lunch rate of 50.34%. These factors may require additional resources and targeted interventions to support student success. The school's student-teacher ratio of 11.9 is relatively low, suggesting a favorable learning environment.
Overall, while Gramercy Elementary School's academic performance is balanced, the high chronic absenteeism rate and the large population of economically disadvantaged students indicate areas for improvement and potential focus for the school and district to ensure all students have the resources and support they need to thrive.
