Best Public Schools in Jeanerette, LA


Summary:

The city of Jeanerette, Louisiana is home to three schools: two elementary schools (St. Charles Street Elementary School and Chitimacha Tribal School) and one high school (Jeanerette Senior High School). These schools serve a predominantly low-income community, as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all three institutions.

Among the standout schools, Chitimacha Tribal School stands out for its unique 100% Native American student population and exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 6.4, suggesting a high level of individualized attention. St. Charles Street Elementary School has also shown consistent improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 387th out of 727 Louisiana elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 298th out of 675 in 2023-2024. This school has strong test scores, with 72% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, outperforming both the Iberia Parish and Louisiana averages.

While Jeanerette Senior High School has a majority African American student population, similar to St. Charles Street Elementary School, its academic performance is more mixed, with some subject areas meeting or exceeding the district and state averages, while others fall behind. This suggests the need for further investigation into the factors contributing to these performance disparities within the Jeanerette school system.
