Summary:
The Voices for International Business & Education district in Louisiana is home to a single high school, International High School of New Orleans, a public charter school serving grades 9-12 with an enrollment of 411 students. The school's performance has been consistently low, ranking between 238 and 271 out of 333 Louisiana high schools over the past three years and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, International High School of New Orleans struggles, with proficiency rates on state assessments significantly below the Louisiana averages across all subjects tested, including Algebra I (33% vs. 62%), English II (50% vs. 66%), and Biology (46% vs. 62%). The school serves a diverse student population, with a majority of African American (51.82%) and Hispanic (36.25%) students, and a high percentage (53.77%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage.
While the school's diverse student body could present both challenges and opportunities, the data suggests that International High School of New Orleans would benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve student achievement, particularly in core academic subjects. Addressing the needs of economically disadvantaged students and exploring strategies to close the performance gaps could be important areas of focus for the school and the Voices for International Business & Education district.
