Louisiana Key Academy Baton Rouge

Louisiana Key Academy Baton Rouge is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in this area, with an enrollment of 450 students. The school faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Louisiana elementary schools over the past 3 years and underperforming the state average on standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas.

With over 62% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Louisiana Key Academy Baton Rouge serves a predominantly low-income student population, which likely contributes to the school's academic struggles. The school's proficiency rates on the LEAP assessments are 20-40 percentage points below the state averages, indicating a need for significant support and targeted interventions to address the root causes of these challenges.

Despite the school's consistently poor performance, there is little evidence of improvement over time, as Louisiana Key Academy Baton Rouge has remained in the bottom 10-15% of Louisiana elementary schools for the past 3 years. This lack of progress suggests that the school may require substantial resources and a comprehensive strategy to improve academic outcomes and better serve its students and community.
