Independence High Magnet

Summary:

Independence High Magnet is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Independence, Louisiana, with a student population of 570 and is part of the Tangipahoa Parish school district, which is ranked 91 out of 122 districts in Louisiana and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being a magnet school, Independence High Magnet consistently underperforms compared to the Tangipahoa Parish and Louisiana state averages on standardized tests, with only 19% of students proficient or better in LEAP Mathematics and 34% in LEAP English Language Arts, compared to 43% and 54% for the parish, and 59% and 69% for the state, respectively. The school also has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (55.44%) and a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (55.87% to 80.18%), indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. These factors likely contribute to the school's academic challenges, as it has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Louisiana high schools with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Jewel M. Sumner High School, Ponchatoula High School, and Hammond High Magnet School, generally perform better academically than Independence High Magnet, with higher proficiency rates, better school rankings, and lower percentages of economically disadvantaged students. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate its strategies and implement more effective interventions to support student learning and provide the high-quality education its students deserve.

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.
