Best Public Schools in Zip Code 71351


Summary:

The 71351 zip code area is home to two schools - Marksville Elementary School and Marksville High School. Both schools serve a diverse student population, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population.

Marksville Elementary School has a relatively large student enrollment of 697 students, with a mix of 49.07% African American and 38.02% White students. However, the school is consistently ranked in the bottom half of Louisiana elementary schools, with proficiency rates in mathematics and English Language Arts below the state averages. In contrast, Marksville High School has a similar large enrollment of 675 students, with a slightly more racially balanced population of 49.19% White and 42.37% African American students. Unfortunately, Marksville High is consistently ranked in the bottom third of Louisiana high schools, with proficiency rates in mathematics, English Language Arts, and End-of-Course exams well below state averages across all grade levels.

The high free/reduced lunch rates at both Marksville Elementary School (69.58%) and Marksville High School (59.41%) suggest that the student populations face significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the lower academic performance. While the schools have diverse student populations, this diversity could present both opportunities and challenges in meeting the needs of all students. Addressing the long-standing challenges in academic achievement at these schools will require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique factors influencing student outcomes in the Avoyelles Parish district.
