Church Point High School

Summary:

Church Point High School is a public high school serving 555 students in grades 9-12 in Church Point, Louisiana, which is part of the Acadia Parish school district.

While Church Point High School's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly above the district and state averages, the school has seen some concerning trends. It has a higher percentage of white students (60.54%) compared to nearby schools, and its statewide ranking has been in the lower half of Louisiana high schools in recent years. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 37.21% in 2021-2022 to 64.5% in 2022-2023, indicating growing socioeconomic challenges. The school's student-teacher ratio is also relatively high, ranging from 17.7 to 18.5, higher than nearby Crowley High School (12.9) and Rayne High School (17.1).

While Church Point High School's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly above the district and state averages, there are some gaps in certain subject areas, such as U.S. History, where the school's proficiency rates have consistently lagged behind the Acadia Parish and Louisiana averages. Nearby schools like Magnet Academy for Cultural Arts and Rayne High School have consistently outperformed Church Point High School in terms of statewide rankings and academic proficiency rates, despite serving similar student populations. These factors suggest that Church Point High School may need to focus on targeted interventions and support to help all students succeed.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
