It’s report card day for Louisiana schools and many have reason to celebrate.
Statewide, 44% of elementary and middle schools and 70% of high schools earned an A or B based on academic results from the 2024-2025 school year, according to state data released Thursday. Collectively, Louisiana’s public schools earned a B, and the statewide performance score grew by nearly one point to 80.9 — the highest it’s been since the current rating system launched over a decade ago.
But for many schools, the good grades won’t last.
Next year, a tougher rating system will kick in. To help prepare schools and the public for the shift, the Louisiana Department of Education released simulated grades this year alongside schools’ official grades. The simulated grades, which carry no weight, show how schools would have fared this year had the new system been in effect. It’s the first public preview of how grades will likely change when the revamped rating system launches in 2026.
For elementary and middle schools, the results would look similar to today: Most would earn the same or better grades, with just 16% getting lower ratings. But for high schools, the difference would be dramatic: 76% would get lower grades under the revised rating system.
The searchable table below shows the actual grade each school and district earned this year, as well as simulated grades based on the revised system.
The next table shows school and district performance scores. The 2024 and 2025 scores are on a 150-point scale, while the simulated scores are on a 100-point scale.

ALEXANDRIA, La. (KALB) – Economic development is on the rise in Cenla and across the Pelican State, and leaders hope to capitalize on it.
Adam Knapp was the keynote speaker at a meeting for the Rotary Club of Alexandria this week. He leads the organization “Leaders for a Better Louisiana” as its CEO.
Knapp said the biggest concern they’ve seen is that some regions of the state do really well with development and some have had a tougher time of it.
What Knapp said he’s been impressed by is the state writing a brand new economic development strategy plan, which he said hasn’t been done in almost 20 years.
“They did that where they kind of quilted together a plan from Louisiana Central, a plan from Southwest Louisiana, from Northeast, Northwest Louisiana, and they said, ‘We need a statewide plan that is a combination of all the things all our metro areas need in order to drive successful economic development visions forward,’” he explained.
Knapp said it’s up to citizens and community leaders to ask for a focus on jobs from state leaders.
