Summary:
The 70668 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Calcasieu Parish school district. While the elementary school lags behind district and state averages, the Vinton Middle School and Vinton High School stand out as strong performers, with the middle school outpacing peers in both math and English, and the high school excelling in Algebra I and English II exams.
The student population across the 3 schools reflects racial diversity, with a mix of White, African American, and Hispanic students. However, the high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 62% to 72%, indicate significant socioeconomic challenges in the Vinton community. This may be a contributing factor to the performance gap observed between the elementary school and the higher-performing middle and high schools.
Overall, the Vinton schools demonstrate both strengths and areas for improvement. While Vinton Middle School and Vinton High School are standout performers, the Vinton Elementary School lags behind, suggesting a need for targeted interventions to address the disparities in performance and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Vinton community.
