Summary:

Twin Oaks Elementary School is a public elementary school in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, serving 485 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the East Baton Rouge Parish school district, which is ranked 77 out of 122 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Twin Oaks stands out for its diverse student population, with higher percentages of Hispanic (31.13%) and Asian (6.39%) students compared to nearby schools. Academically, the school outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, with 67% of students proficient or better. However, its Mathematics proficiency (52%) lags behind the district (48%) and state (59%) averages. Twin Oaks ranks higher for its African American and English Language Learner student groups compared to its overall school ranking, suggesting the school is effectively supporting these populations.

Despite its strong ELA performance, Twin Oaks has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools, with a ranking between 419-655 over the past 10 years and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's Mathematics proficiency has also declined from 59% in 2022-2023 to 52% in 2023-2024, widening the gap with the district and state. While Twin Oaks outperforms some nearby schools like Broadmoor Elementary and Park Forest Elementary, it lags behind higher-performing schools like Greenbrier Elementary and GEO Prep Academy of Greater Baton Rouge. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Twin Oaks (75.88%) may contribute to the school's academic challenges and lower overall ranking, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and resources to support this population.

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.

Open Quote Reading the stats on this school, my rating is very poor. Close Quote

Open Quote This school is not great at all. The teachers have no patience. I have experience this with my child being in kindergarten as well when I was checking my child out of this school. The teachers are yelling first week of school at the kindergartens as well as first graders. Yelling because the child in (K) not moving fast enough and didn't get up as the other children and teacher admitting she yelled because she didn't get up fast enough now that was the first day of school. My child is shy and very quiet.The kindergarten teacher stated she can't hold their hands. Sad! Sad! Sad! Child gets something in her eye, told the (K) teacher and teacher stated she didn't see anything and to go sit down took her to the doctor her eyeball was scratch which doctor said that would have her struggling to keep her eye open. What a terrible experiment. Administration is no better. Waiting as long as 17 mintues to check my child out. The assistant told my child if she didn't come to school I would go to jail. Scaring my child even more.Now you tell me would you want your child to go to this school? Close Quote

Open Quote Office personnel are very unprofessional and inept. They do not acknowledge parents or guardians that enter the school. People walk in and out of the building without signing in or checking students out during the day. It is impossible to contact anyone by phone and they do not return phone calls. The children there are not educated properly. The teachers lack the ability to prepare children for the next grade. The test scores are epically low!

Do not send your child to this school. If you have other options please exhaust those prior to allowing your child to attend school here. You will regret allowing your child to attend this school! Close Quote

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.
