Haynesville Elementary School

Summary:

Haynesville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Haynesville, Louisiana, which is part of the Claiborne Parish school district. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 190 out of 731 Louisiana elementary schools in 2018-2019 to a low of 625 out of 675 in the most recent 2023-2024 school year.

Haynesville Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to some nearby schools, with around 60% African American students and 37% White students. The school generally outperforms the Claiborne Parish district average in both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates, particularly for its African American and male student subgroups. However, its performance for low socioeconomic status and disabled students has been more mixed. The school has also seen a significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 56.82% in 2020-2021 to 80.41% in 2022-2023.

When compared to nearby schools in the Webster Parish and Claiborne Parish districts, Haynesville Elementary generally outperforms its counterparts in ELA proficiency, but some nearby schools, such as North Webster Upper Elementary, have shown stronger performance in Math. The school's declining statewide ranking and disparities in subgroup performance suggest that there are areas for improvement and potential challenges that the school and district will need to address.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
