In zip code 70772, which serves the Rosedale area, there is a single elementary school, North Iberville Elementary, serving grades PK through 6 with 272 students as part of the Iberville Parish school district.
North Iberville Elementary stands out as a strong performer in Mathematics, consistently exceeding both its district and state averages. In the 2025-2026 school year, 63% of all students were proficient in math, compared to 56% for the district and 62% for the state. The school also boasts an excellent student-teacher ratio of 6.5 students per teacher, creating a highly personalized learning environment. However, the school serves a high-need population, with 85.66% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. While the school's state percentile rank has declined slightly over three years (from the 46th to the 44th percentile), its test scores have remained stable, suggesting other schools are improving at a faster pace rather than a decline in absolute performance.
A notable finding is a sharp drop in math proficiency in 5th grade, where only 43% of students are proficient compared to the state average of 61%, indicating a potential curriculum or transition issue. Social Studies is a clear weakness, with only 42% of students proficient, well below the state average of 55%. On a positive note, chronic absenteeism is low at 17.1%, significantly below the state average of 22.5%, which points to strong family engagement and attendance efforts. Overall, North Iberville Elementary is a math-focused school in a high-poverty setting with a low student-teacher ratio, but it faces challenges in 5th-grade math and social studies.
