this school is not good with academic or physical education. Physical education is a joke. The administrations handling of issues needs alot of work and communication between staff so everyone is on the same page especially with school rules.

I find their music program to be comparable to the best schools in Terrebonne Parish. My 2 children both participate in band and received regular music instruction beginning in 4th grade. As for extracurricular activities, my students played intermurial sports, both were members of 4-H (I was very impressed with this club), and last year my daughter was in the Beta club. It sounds like their after school program operation move has a great deal of opportunities for students to enjoy themselves and extend their learning as well. I am overall please with Caldwell. I think the staff has been very consistent in terms of discipline and have a genuine interest in bringing out the best in their students. I do think there is a lack of parent involvemnet and this is evident in some of the behavior problems seen in students. I rate it average to good.

I think that Caldwell Middle School should have more programs for art, music, and extracurricular activities. Their academic programs are acceptable but they can be better. The level of parent involvement has increased and they are getting better at it. Overall on a scale from 1-10 I give Caldwell a 7.

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.
