I believe that East Natchitoches does a fine job with the resources available. I like the uniform policy, and the pride, and discipline that they instill into the students.

I think that if the staff would not be so worry about if the child's shirt tuck in and if the belt is the right color and concentrate on the child being at school and on time. They need to focus on gettin these children preparing them for these test that they have to overcome and we all can get some progress done in the school.

I do not feel students should be graded on how well they play... if P.E. grades count it should be on attitude, participation and such. So glad to get out of this school!!

I think they need to offer a tutoring class for after school. My son is in the 6th grade, and failed due to math only, everything else id A's. My daughter is struggling but getting by. I think that if they want more help and the child is actually wanting to learn then it should be offered to them.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Louisiana used the Louisiana Educational Assessment Program for the 21st Century (LEAP 21) to assess students in grades 4 and 8 in math, English language arts, science and social studies. The LEAP 21 is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Louisiana. The goal is for all students to score at or above basic on the test.
