Summary:

The zip code 70092 contains only one elementary school, W. Smith Junior Elementary School, which serves students from the St. Bernard Parish district. While the school has a diverse student population, it faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in mathematics, English language arts, and social studies consistently lower than district and state averages.

W. Smith Junior Elementary School's academic performance has been a concern, with its statewide ranking declining over the past three years, from 569th out of 727 Louisiana elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 373rd out of 675 in 2023-2024. The school's SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 1 star out of 5 in 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 to 2 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024, indicating a need for improvement in various areas. Additionally, the school serves a high-poverty student population, with 89.49% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may impact the school's resources and support for students.

Despite the school's challenges, it does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.2 to 1, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention to students. However, the school's academic performance, particularly in social studies, suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to help improve student learning and achievement in these areas. Overall, the data indicates that W. Smith Junior Elementary School faces significant hurdles in providing a high-quality education to its students, and further investigation into the underlying factors may be necessary to address these concerns.
