Summary:
The 71047 zip code is home to a single public school, Keithville Elementary/Middle School, which serves grades PK-8 and has an enrollment of 846 students. The school is part of the Caddo Parish school district, which is ranked 84 out of 118 districts in Louisiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Keithville Elementary/Middle School has consistently underperformed the Caddo Parish and Louisiana averages in math proficiency over the past two school years, with the gap widening in the more recent 2024-2025 school year. While the school's English Language Arts proficiency rates have been more mixed, with some grade levels outperforming the district and state, the overall trend is still one of underperformance compared to the broader region. The school's high rate of free/reduced lunch recipients (73.88%) suggests a student population that faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance issues.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.7, which could be a positive factor, this does not appear to be translating into stronger academic outcomes based on the test score data. The school's 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and its ranking in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools indicate that it is a lower-performing institution that may require additional resources and interventions to improve student achievement.
