Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy

Summary:

Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy is a public high school in Shreveport, Louisiana, serving 561 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Caddo Parish school district, which is ranked 90 out of 122 districts in Louisiana and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy stands out from nearby schools like Woodlawn Leadership Academy, Huntington High School, and C.E. Byrd High School due to its significantly higher percentage of African American students (96.97%), lower academic performance, and higher rates of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Louisiana high schools, with particularly low performance for female, male, and low-income students. However, the school's special education students appear to perform better relative to the overall school.

The high percentage of African American students, high rates of economic disadvantage, and relatively high student-teacher ratio at Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy may be contributing factors to the school's consistently low academic performance compared to the surrounding schools and the Caddo Parish and Louisiana state averages. Targeted interventions and support may be needed to address the underlying challenges and improve outcomes for the students at Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy.

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.
