Summary:
The city of Terrytown, Louisiana is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 middle school. The data reveals that Geraldine Boudreaux Elementary School stands out as the top-performing school in the area, consistently achieving higher test scores in Math and English Language Arts compared to the Jefferson Parish district and Louisiana state averages. This is particularly impressive given that the school has a relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.
Livaudais Middle School also stands out for its strong performance on End-of-Course (EOC) exams, with 100% proficiency in Algebra I and 93% proficiency in English I, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. In contrast, Athlos Academy of Jefferson Parish, a public charter school, has the lowest test scores and statewide rankings among the schools in the data set, suggesting potential areas for improvement and further investigation.
The data also reveals significant achievement gaps between the schools and the district/state averages, particularly in Math and English Language Arts. This suggests that there may be opportunities for targeted interventions and support to help raise student proficiency levels across the Terrytown schools. Additionally, the variation in student-teacher ratios and free/reduced lunch rates across the schools could be important factors in understanding the schools' performance and the challenges they face.
