Summary:
The 70450 zip code is home to a single alternative public school, Mt. Hermon School, which serves grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 433 students. The school's student body is predominantly White (70.9%), with significant representation from African American (21.48%) and Hispanic (3%) students.
While Mt. Hermon School's performance on LEAP assessments is generally below the Washington Parish and Louisiana state averages in mathematics and English Language Arts, its end-of-course exam results are more mixed, with some subjects exceeding district and state levels while others fall behind. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students (56.81%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students compared to the broader region.
As an alternative school, Mt. Hermon may face unique challenges and serve a specialized student population, which could impact its academic performance compared to traditional public schools. Further investigation into the school's specific programs, services, and student demographics would be necessary to better understand its performance in context and identify potential areas for targeted interventions and support to improve student learning outcomes.
