C.E. Byrd High School

Summary:

C.E. Byrd High School is a public high school in Shreveport, Louisiana, serving 1,526 students in grades 9-12 and part of the Caddo Parish school district.

C.E. Byrd High School consistently outperforms the Caddo Parish and Louisiana state averages in End-of-Course (EOC) exam proficiency rates across various subjects, including Algebra I, Geometry, English I, English II, U.S. History, and Biology. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 60% in Algebra I, 66% in Geometry, 79% in English II, and 77% in Biology, compared to the Caddo Parish averages of 48%, 41%, 58%, and 52%, respectively. The school has also maintained a strong statewide ranking, placing in the top quarter of Louisiana high schools in recent years, and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year.

Compared to nearby high schools, such as Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy and Woodlawn Leadership Academy, both within the Caddo Parish district, C.E. Byrd High School stands out as a higher-performing institution, with significantly higher proficiency rates and statewide rankings. However, the school's performance for certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and special education students, suggests potential areas for improvement, and the school's relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (43.05% in 2022-2023) indicates that it serves a significant population of students from low-income backgrounds, which may present additional challenges in terms of academic support and resources.

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.
