Caddo is a sinking ship. Too long a list for this thread. They are constantly changing schools up (closing them, changing grade levels) staying ahead of the state. I don’t know how Caddo fills their teacher ranks every year.


Caddo is a shithole

If you want to see how they compare overall take the individual scores from the schools and compare them across districts. Zachary- 104.1 Dutchtown - 105.5 St amant - 101.9 Live oak - 112.7 baton rouge high - 126.4 Liberty (Lee) - 110.3 West Feliciana - 105.7 Mandeville - 98.8 Covington - 80.3 Lakeshore - 88.1 Slidell - 81.7 Chalmette - 89.6


This paints a much more accurate picture, go ahead Lee High with the 110, knew my alma matter would shine

For many districts, scores are smoke and mirrors. A school (and its district) gets points for things like offering ACT tests to all students, regardless of whether they are remotely close to being college caliber. They push dual enrollment classes on kids who have no business in them (and they are shite classes offered by Southern and BRCC, which will not be respected by any school out-of-state).

Zachary is interesting, because it counters the argument that black kids can't do, or that black schools are left behind. That district is majority black now. It is evidence of middle class flight instead of white flight.

They had a severe impact status with more than 17 days of closure due to emergency. So their scores aren’t published.


Ah, that makes sense. I was looking for St. Charles. It is usually fairly close to the top in Louisiana (it's like being a tall midget).

For a fairly new magnet school it seems to be doing well. Far better than any shitty regular school those kids would be attending. Good for them.

I have a feeling with how St Charles adopted the new literacy program early that you will see them at the top next year.

What exactly is recovery school district
Schools taken from EBR, Cado, and Pointe Coupee. The idea was they were failing schools due to poor leadership and the State thought they could fix that. The program has been a total failure imo.

Salmen. Salmen is happening. And covington, but that's been known for awhile.

Pleasantly surprised about Lakeshore.

I graduated from Fontainebleau right before Lakeshore opened. Back in those days I believe we were the largest public school in the state.

But would you send your kids to any public school in Bossier over South Highlands, middle magnet, Byrd Shreve or Magnet High if you had the choice?

If given the choice knowing what I know now, I would choose Dutchtown High for 2 of my kids and Baton Rouge High for the other 2.

Parkway and Airline are just as good as Shreve and Byrd, if not better. Bossier has good middle and elementary too, without having any magnet programs or schools,

But I wouldn’t send my kids to any public school in either parish, or the state.

It is a shame districts like Tangipahoa score so poorly.


It's a fricking joke.

They spent tons of money finding a new superintendent that's even more ineffective than the last one. The school board itself before last November's elections was full of morons. Couple people who were elected for the first time recently will have their work cut out for them.

Thank God my kids no longer go to public school in this parish.

Zachary is a good school system, don't get me wrong, but I think they focus too much on specific tests and gaming these scores.
