Lakeside Junior-Senior High School

Summary:

Lakeside Junior-Senior High School is a public school located in Sibley, Louisiana, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 557 students. The school is part of the Webster Parish school district, which is ranked 69 out of 122 districts in Louisiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lakeside consistently outperforms the Webster Parish and Louisiana state averages in standardized test scores across multiple subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Lakeside had 62% of students proficient or better in LEAP Mathematics, compared to 53% for Webster Parish and 59% for Louisiana. Similarly, in LEAP English Language Arts, Lakeside had 74% proficiency, compared to 57% for Webster Parish and 69% for Louisiana. Lakeside has steadily improved its statewide ranking over the years, moving from the bottom half of Louisiana high schools in 2016-2017 to the top 20% in 2023-2024, where it ranked 62nd out of 333 high schools and earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Lakeside's overall performance is strong, there are some disparities in the performance of different student subgroups, particularly between male and female students, and between White and African American students. Lakeside's performance is notably stronger than that of the nearby Minden High School, which is also part of the Webster Parish district. Lakeside's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch may be a contributing factor to its strong academic performance, as research has shown that socioeconomic status can significantly impact student outcomes.

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.
