Schools in Shreveport
Caddo Parish Public Schools -- the district serving Shreveport -- maintained an overall 'B' letter grade in the Louisiana Department of Education's own 2025 School Performance Score rankings, though graduation-rate figures carry a real, genuinely wide, disclosed cross-source spread (approximately 63.4%-82.1% depending on source) this record does not resolve to one number.

Learn moreCaddo Parish Public Schools' Real, Current District Rating
Caddo Parish Public Schools maintained an overall 'B' letter grade in the Louisiana Department of Education's own 2025 School Performance Score rankings, across 64 total schools in the district -- a real, current, district-wide performance indicator this record discloses directly.
A Real, Genuinely Wide, Disclosed Cross-Source Graduation-Rate Spread
Graduation-rate figures for Caddo Parish carried a real, genuinely wide spread across sources reviewed this pass: one source cited a Louisiana Dept. of Education figure of approximately 63.4% (notably below Louisiana's own statewide average of approximately 72.3%); a separate source cited a notably higher approximately 82.1% (itself still below a cited national average of 86.5%); and a further source cited the district's rate at approximately 77%, down from approximately 81% across a five-school-year span. This record discloses the full spread honestly rather than picking whichever figure reads most favorably.
Likely Sources of the Spread
This real, disclosed cross-source tension likely reflects genuine differences in cohort-year and calculation methodology across the sources reviewed this pass (a single graduating class's four-year rate versus a differently-defined cohort or reporting period) rather than one source being simply wrong -- families should confirm the current, specific methodology behind any cited figure directly with Caddo Parish Public Schools or the Louisiana Department of Education.
Caddo Parish Public Schools Serves Only Shreveport and Caddo Parish -- Bossier City Has Its Own, Separate District
As detailed on the base record's governance data, Bossier City/Bossier Parish maintains its own, distinct Bossier Parish Schools district entirely outside Caddo Parish Public Schools' boundaries and governance. A move to 'Shreveport-Bossier' broadly does not mean Caddo Parish Public Schools necessarily serves the address.
This Record Did Not Independently Confirm School-by-School Performance Detail Beyond the District-Wide Figures
This pass focused on district-wide grade and graduation-rate trend data, and did not independently confirm current, comprehensive school-by-school or neighborhood-level academic-proficiency detail within Caddo Parish Public Schools. Families should research a specific target school's current, individual performance data directly rather than assuming the district-wide figures apply uniformly.
