Forest School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 549 students in Forest, Louisiana. The school is part of the West Carroll Parish school district, which is ranked 48 out of 122 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Forest School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (79.78%) compared to the state average (59%), its test scores are generally lower than the West Carroll Parish and Louisiana state averages across various LEAP assessments in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and other subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics (46%) and English Language Arts (58%) are lower than the parish (64% and 64%) and state (59% and 69%) averages. Additionally, Forest School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 73.77% in the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average.

The school's test scores have fluctuated over the past three years, with some grades and subjects performing better than others. For instance, the school's Geometry and English II End-of-Course (EOC) exam scores have been consistently higher than the parish and state averages, while its Mathematics and English Language Arts LEAP scores have been lower. The combination of lower test scores, higher student-teacher ratio, and socioeconomic challenges suggests that Forest School may benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve 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.
