Summary:
The two elementary schools located in Madison Parish, Louisiana, Tallulah Elementary School and Wright Elementary School, serve predominantly African American student populations and face significant academic challenges.
Both schools have low rankings and proficiency rates on standardized tests, with Wright Elementary School ranking 670 out of 675 Louisiana elementary schools in 2023-2024 and Tallulah Elementary School ranking 725 out of 729 in 2020-2021, both with 0-star ratings. The schools also serve economically disadvantaged communities, with over 87% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
While the student-teacher ratios are not extremely high, they are still above the recommended 15:1 ratio for elementary schools, which may contribute to the academic struggles. Additionally, the lack of available data for Tallulah Elementary School's test scores makes it difficult to fully assess and compare the academic performance of the two schools. Overall, the data suggests that these elementary schools in Madison Parish face significant challenges and may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
