Summary:
The 70310 zip code has only one school, The MAX Charter School, an elementary public charter school serving grades 1-8 with 105 students. The school is struggling academically, ranking 633 out of 666 Louisiana elementary schools and earning a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The MAX Charter School has significantly lower test scores compared to the state averages in both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 15% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Math, compared to the state average of 64%. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.6% for the 2023-2024 school year, which can negatively impact student learning and achievement.
While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.5, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school serves a socioeconomically disadvantaged population, with 55.24% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Overall, the data suggests that The MAX Charter School is in need of significant improvements to better serve its students and community.
