Bell City High School

Summary:

Bell City High School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 819 students in Bell City, Louisiana, which is part of the Calcasieu Parish school district. This high-performing school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic achievement, particularly in core subject areas.

Bell City High School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (86.45%) compared to the state average, and lower percentages of African American (4.4%) and Hispanic (4.52%) students. However, the school's diverse student population is effectively served, as evidenced by its exceptional performance on End-of-Course (EOC) exams, with proficiency rates far exceeding the district and state in subjects like Algebra I (91% vs. 69% and 62%), Geometry (86% vs. 68% and 58%), and English I (83% vs. 72% and 65%). The school's Mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency rates across all grade levels are also consistently higher than the Calcasieu Parish and Louisiana state averages.

While the school's free and reduced-price lunch rates have fluctuated over the past three years, ranging from 21.88% to 50.07%, the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 16.3 to 16.9, which is lower than the state average. This combination of academic excellence and favorable student-teacher ratio suggests that Bell City High School could serve as a valuable resource for neighboring schools, such as Lacassine High School, to learn from and potentially collaborate with on best practices and strategies for improving student 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.
