Summary:
The Recovery School District-LDE in Louisiana contains only one elementary school, Linwood Public Charter School, which serves grades PK-8. This school has consistently struggled academically, ranking in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools for the past three years and performing significantly below the state average in mathematics, English language arts, and social studies proficiency.
Linwood Public Charter School faces several challenges, including a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (89.97% receive free or reduced-price lunch) and a lack of diversity, with the student population being predominantly African American (94.74%). The school's academic performance, as measured by LEAP test scores, is well below the state average across all grade levels, suggesting the need for significant interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
Despite the school's struggles, there may be opportunities for improvement. By addressing the economic and demographic factors that contribute to the school's challenges, as well as implementing targeted academic interventions, Linwood Public Charter School could potentially enhance its performance and better serve the local community. However, the school's persistent low ranking indicates that it may require substantial resources and support to achieve meaningful and sustainable progress.
