Twelve (12) Schools in Southwest Louisiana Get Failing Grade

According KPLCTV.com, Louisiana’s public school grading system has improved since over a year ago. Scores have gone from 575 last year to 607 this year.

Performance reports were released on Tuesday morning (Oct. 21st), and twelve schools in Southwest Louisiana didn’t fair so well, including LaGrange High, Washington Marion High, Molo Middle, Oak Park Middle, and more.

For a more detailed list of schools in Allen, Beauregard, Calcasieu, Cameron, Jeff Davis, and Vernon Parish click here. Two area charter schools are also on the list as well.

Now, my question to you the reader. Who are we to blame for these failing numbers in our public schools. Do we blame the teachers, parents, or the state for not providing the failing schools on the list with the same resources as the higher performing schools?
