Summary:
The 71432 zip code is home to a single alternative public school, Georgetown High School, which serves grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 209 students. While the school's performance is generally on par with or exceeds the Grant Parish district and Louisiana state averages in some areas, it also faces unique challenges due to its high percentage of students from low-income households.
Georgetown High School's four-year graduation rate of 83.2% is slightly lower than the state average, while its dropout rate of 3.3% is slightly higher. The school's math proficiency rates are generally lower than the district and state averages, with the exception of 7th and 8th grade math. In English Language Arts, however, the school's proficiency rates are mostly on par with or higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, Georgetown High School performs particularly well on end-of-course exams, with high proficiency rates in Algebra I, Geometry, English II, and Biology.
The high percentage of students (58.37%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Georgetown High School indicates a relatively low-income student population, which may contribute to some of the academic performance gaps observed. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.6 could be a positive factor, as it may allow for more individualized attention and support for students. Overall, Georgetown High School appears to be performing reasonably well, with some areas of strength and some areas that could benefit from additional focus and support.
