Summary:
In zip code 71038, there is one elementary school, Haynesville Elementary School, serving grades PK through 5 with 304 students in the Haynesville area of Louisiana.
Haynesville Elementary School stands out as a bright spot within the Claiborne Parish district, which is ranked in the bottom 14% of Louisiana districts. The school outperforms its district in every tested subject, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) and Social Studies. For the 2025-2026 school year, 64% of students were proficient in ELA, well above the district average of 52% and close to the state average of 70%. In Social Studies, 51% of students were proficient, a remarkable 17 percentage points higher than the district average of 34%. The school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (18.8%) than both the district (23.2%) and state (22.5%) averages, indicating strong student attendance despite serving a high-poverty population where nearly 84% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.
However, a critical challenge emerges in Mathematics, where only 33% of students are proficient—29 percentage points below the state average of 62%. A notable drop occurs in 4th grade, where math proficiency falls to just 18% from 47% in 3rd grade, before recovering to 37% in 5th grade. This suggests a specific need for targeted math intervention in the 4th-grade curriculum. Overall, Haynesville Elementary School demonstrates strong performance in ELA and Social Studies, but families should be aware of the significant math proficiency gap that requires attention.
