Church Point Elementary School

Summary:

Church Point Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 604 students in grades PK-5 in Church Point, Louisiana, which is part of the Acadia Parish school district, ranked 28 out of 122 districts in the state with a 4-star rating.

The school stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American (40.4%) and Hispanic (7.62%) students compared to nearby schools like St. Landry Charter School and Park Vista Elementary School. Academically, Church Point Elementary consistently outperforms the Acadia Parish and Louisiana state averages in mathematics proficiency, but its English Language Arts and social studies proficiency rates are more mixed, with social studies being an area of relative weakness. Interestingly, male students, as well as African American and Hispanic students, perform better at Church Point Elementary than their statewide counterparts, while white students, students with disabilities, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds perform worse.

The school's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating have fluctuated over the years, ranging from 318 to 580 out of 729-792 Louisiana elementary schools and 1 to 3 stars out of 5, respectively. This variability suggests that the school has room for improvement, particularly in addressing the needs of its lower-performing student subgroups and strengthening its social studies curriculum. However, the school's diverse student population and strong mathematics performance are notable strengths that could be built upon to help Church Point Elementary achieve more consistent and higher academic outcomes.

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.
