Just Released: Louisiana’s Top 10 School Districts

The website onlyinyourstate.com has put together what they say is the latest and most comprehensive list of the top school districts in the state:

"Louisiana has struggled throughout history to create a public school system that fairly and completely serves the residents of the state. Since Katrina, an influx of new educational experimentation has began in New Orleans and has spread to different areas of the state. This ushered in a wave of charter schools that are beginning to make an impact on the overall school landscape.

There are a lot of different ways you could create this list. We decided to focus not just on which districts had the highest averages overall, but also which areas had the highest number of “A” rated schools. Our calculation was created by weighing the state district score 75%, and the percentage of schools with an “A” rating as 25%."

Here's their Top 10 list and they score they received:

1) St. Charles Parish 107

2) Zachary Community 106.5

3) Vernon Parish 105.23

4) Ascension Parish 104.65

5) St. Tammany Parish 103.1

6) Plaquemines Parish 103

7) Orleans Parish 102.225

8) Livingston Parish 99.05

9) Allen Parish 97

10) St. Bernard Parish 93.1
