Education dept. to release performance scores
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Eighty-five public schools in Louisiana are labeled “academically unacceptable” in school performance scores released by state education officials; 10 schools achieved the top
five-star rating.
The Department of Education also ranked school districts in the data released Friday. The Zachary Community School District had the highest district score with a 112.6.
Lowest was the Recovery School District, the state entity that took over failing New Orleans public schools after Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. That district earned a 51.4 score. However, a reform group called “Educate Now” notes significant improvements in the city’s schools. The group says that 63 percent of the city’s students were in failing schools before Katrina. That number is down to 41 percent now.
