Summary:
The 70591 zip code area is home to two schools - Welsh Elementary School and Welsh High School. While both schools serve the local community, Welsh High School stands out as a top performer, consistently earning a 4-star rating and outpacing the Jefferson Davis Parish and Louisiana state averages on key end-of-course exams.
Welsh High School is ranked 102 out of 333 Louisiana high schools, placing it in the top third of the state. In contrast, Welsh Elementary School is a solid performer, earning a 3-star rating and exceeding the parish and state averages in math, but lagging behind in English Language Arts. The elementary school also has a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 67.26%, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
Overall, the data suggests that Welsh High School is providing a high-quality education to its students, while Welsh Elementary School may benefit from targeted interventions and support programs to address the performance gap in English language arts. The lower student-teacher ratio at the high school may also be a contributing factor to its stronger academic outcomes.
