Best Public Schools in White Castle, LA


Summary:

The city of White Castle, Louisiana is home to two schools - Dorseyville Elementary School and White Castle High School. Both schools serve predominantly African American student populations and have high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant economically disadvantaged population.

Dorseyville Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, consistently outperforming the Iberville Parish and Louisiana state averages in Math and English Language Arts. With 65-82% of students proficient or better across grade levels, the school's academic outcomes are impressive. Additionally, Dorseyville Elementary maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.6, which may contribute to its strong performance.

In contrast, White Castle High School struggles academically, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages, particularly in subjects like Algebra I, Geometry, and U.S. History. Despite having a low student-teacher ratio of 8.9, the school's academic performance lags significantly, suggesting that factors beyond staffing ratios may be impacting student outcomes. The disparity in academic achievement between the two schools highlights the need for further investigation into the underlying factors contributing to these differences and the implementation of targeted interventions to support the improvement of educational opportunities for all students in the White Castle community.
