High Schools in Morehouse Parish

Morehouse Parish, Louisiana is home to a single high school, Bastrop High School, which serves grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Bastrop High School appears to be a consistently low-performing school, ranking in the bottom tier of Louisiana high schools for the past several years.

Bastrop High School's academic performance is significantly below the Morehouse Parish and Louisiana state averages across core subjects like mathematics and English language arts. The school's proficiency rates in subjects like Geometry, U.S. History, and other end-of-course exams are also well below regional and state benchmarks. Despite having a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, the school's academic challenges persist, suggesting that factors beyond socioeconomic status may be contributing to the poor student outcomes.

The school's student population is predominantly African American, which may indicate the need to examine potential socioeconomic and cultural factors that could be impacting academic achievement. Additionally, the school's slightly higher student-teacher ratio compared to the state average could be a factor in the low performance, and further investigation into the quality of instruction and teacher effectiveness may provide insights into the school's challenges.
