Summary:
The 70363 zip code area in Louisiana is home to 9 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Terrebonne Parish school district. While the district is ranked 18 out of 118 in the state and has a 4-star rating, there are significant disparities in academic performance among the schools in this area.
The top-performing schools include Dularge Elementary School, which ranks in the top 10% of Louisiana elementary schools, and Acadian Elementary School and Grand Caillou Elementary School, which also perform well above average. These schools have exceptional test scores, with 80-90% of students proficient or better in math and English language arts. In contrast, other schools in the area struggle, with proficiency rates as low as 50-60%.
Across the schools, there are also concerning trends, such as high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 24.6% to 24.6% and a wide range of free/reduced-price lunch eligibility, from 43.33% to 83.85%, indicating significant economic challenges for many families in the area. While Ellender Memorial High School has a respectable 83.2% four-year graduation rate, the district and community may need to focus on targeted interventions to address the disparities and support the lower-performing schools in the 70363 zip code.
