Summary:
The city of Rougon, Louisiana is home to a single public elementary school, Rougon Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 516 students. The school's racial makeup is predominantly White (45.74%) and African American (47.29%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic, Asian, and multiracial students.
Despite serving a high-need population, with 67.25% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, Rougon Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to state and district averages in academic proficiency, particularly in Mathematics and Social Studies. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated between 501 and 550 out of 675-730 Louisiana elementary schools over the past three school years, with a current rating of 1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. This suggests that the school may be facing significant challenges in effectively delivering curriculum and supporting student learning.
Given the school's academic struggles and the high level of economic disadvantage among its student population, Rougon Elementary School may benefit from additional resources, professional development for teachers, and targeted interventions to support student learning. Collaboration with the Pointe Coupee Parish district and community stakeholders could be crucial in developing and implementing effective strategies for improvement.
