District-Level NCES Analysis
Iberville Parish operates 8 public schools serving 4,498 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Louisiana. The school portfolio breaks down into 8 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Iberville Parish.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $22,415 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 19 of 188 Louisiana districts by per-pupil spending. See how Louisiana compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 68.8% local, 12.2% state, and 19.0% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 72/100, ranked #22 of 176 in Louisiana against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 433.8:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 13.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 68.0% African American, 26.3% White, 3.4% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Crescent Elementary/Junior High School, with a diversity index of 54.0/100.
Its largest campus is Plaquemine Senior High School, enrolling 990 students (24% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is North Iberville High School, at 181 students, a 5x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Plaquemine Senior High School accounts for 22.0% of all Iberville Parish student enrollment
That concentration means Iberville Parish-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Iberville Parish school enrollment varies 5.5× across entities
Iberville Parish school enrollment ranges from 181 students (lowest) to 990 students (highest), a spread of 809 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share sits between 62.5% and 75%, above a simple majority but below the highest descriptive band used here. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Iberville Parish student-counselor ratio is 434:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Iberville Parish chronic absenteeism rate is 13.0% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
