Summary:
The 70128 zip code area of New Orleans, Louisiana is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 2 high schools, but no middle schools or alternative schools. The data reveals stark contrasts in academic performance, with Lake Forest Elementary Charter School consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in the state, while Einstein Charter at Sherwood Forest lags significantly behind, with only 29-44% of students scoring proficient or better on state assessments.
The high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 70.18% at Lake Forest Elementary Charter School to 98.72% at Einstein Charter at Sherwood Forest, indicate that the student population in this area comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Additionally, the chronic absenteeism rates are quite high, with nearly a quarter of students at several schools missing a significant amount of instructional time.
The student-teacher ratios are generally favorable, with the exception of New Orleans Accelerated High School, which has a significantly higher ratio of 21.9 students per teacher. This suggests that the schools have the potential to provide more individualized attention and support to students, but the data does not reveal the underlying factors that may be contributing to the varying levels of academic achievement.
