Summary:
The 70119 zip code area of New Orleans, Louisiana is home to 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. These schools serve a predominantly disadvantaged student population, with high rates of free and reduced lunch eligibility. While some schools, like Bricolage Academy, outperform state averages in academic achievement, others, like New Harmony High Institute, struggle to meet proficiency levels.
Bricolage Academy, a charter elementary/middle school, stands out with relatively high test scores, with 66% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 46% in Mathematics. In contrast, Warren Easton Charter High School, while having a very high percentage of African American students (97.48%) and strong test scores in core subjects, has a middle-of-the-road statewide ranking. New Harmony High Institute, a charter high school, has a more diverse student population but lower test scores, with only 30-56% proficiency rates in core subjects.
The schools in this area exhibit a wide range of student-teacher ratios, from an extremely high 1161.6 at Bricolage Academy to a more manageable 11.9 at New Harmony High Institute. This suggests that class size and staffing levels may be important factors in the academic performance of these schools. Overall, the data highlights the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to address the disparities and ensure equitable access to quality education for all students in this community.
