Summary:
The West Carroll Parish school district in Louisiana is home to a single high school, Oak Grove High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. Despite being the only high school in the district, Oak Grove High School appears to be a relatively strong-performing institution, with proficiency rates exceeding the district and state averages in most subject areas.
Oak Grove High School has a student enrollment of 480 and a diverse racial makeup, with a majority White student population (76.67%) and significant representation from African American (17.92%), Hispanic (2.71%), and Asian (1.67%) students. The school also has a high free/reduced lunch rate of 64.79%, indicating a significant portion of the student body comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Academically, the school has performed well, with higher proficiency rates than the district and state in subjects like Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Biology. However, the school's proficiency rate in U.S. History is lower than the district and state averages.
While Oak Grove High School has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in recent years, its statewide ranking has declined, going from 55th out of 326 schools in 2021-2022 to 84th out of 321 schools in 2022-2023. This trend, coupled with the school's lower proficiency in U.S. History, suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement and further analysis to understand the factors contributing to the school's performance and ranking over time.
