Summary:
The 70808 zip code area of Baton Rouge, Louisiana is home to 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. These schools serve a diverse student population and offer a range of educational opportunities.
The standout performers in this area are the magnet schools, such as B.R. Foreign Language Acad. Immersion Magnet and Westdale Heights Academic Magnet School, which consistently rank among the top schools in Louisiana and boast exceptional test scores, with 99-100% of students proficient or better in math and English language arts. Another high-performing school is Liberty High School, a public magnet high school that ranks among the top 50 high schools in the state.
In contrast, the non-magnet schools in the area have more mixed performance, with some outperforming and others underperforming the East Baton Rouge Parish and state averages. The alternative school, University View Academy Inc. (FRM LA Connections), has a lower graduation rate and higher dropout rate compared to the other schools. Additionally, the high chronic absenteeism rate across all schools is a significant issue that needs to be addressed.
