Additionally, Galliano Elementary has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (24.6%) compared to the state average.
Despite serving a student population that faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with a high free/reduced lunch rate of 69.25%, Galliano Elementary School is able to achieve strong academic results. While the school outperforms the state averages, there are some gaps between its performance and the district averages, particularly in Mathematics. Addressing chronic absenteeism, which still represents a significant portion of the student population, could be an area of focus for the school to further improve student outcomes.
