Summary:
Dwight D. Eisenhower Charter School is the sole elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Dwight D. Eisenhower Charter School District in New Orleans, Louisiana. With a total enrollment of 705 students, the school faces challenges in academic performance, with declining rankings and uneven proficiency rates across grade levels compared to state averages.
Dwight D. Eisenhower Charter School has experienced a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, from 601 out of 727 schools in 2021-2022 to 447 out of 675 schools in 2023-2024. The school's proficiency rates in LEAP Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) vary significantly across grade levels, with some grades performing above the state average (e.g., 3rd-grade Mathematics) and others performing well below (e.g., 6th-grade Mathematics). However, the school's performance in LEAP Algebra I and English I End-of-Course exams was stronger, with proficiency rates exceeding the state averages.
Serving a predominantly African American (78.01%) and economically disadvantaged (73.9% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch) student population, Dwight D. Eisenhower Charter School faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may contribute to its academic performance struggles. Targeted interventions and support, along with a focus on consistent, high-quality instruction, may be necessary to improve the school's outcomes and overall ranking within the Dwight D. Eisenhower Charter School District.
