Maurepas School is a higher-need, mid-sized combined-grade school in Maurepas, Louisiana, enrolling 301 students.

Classes run notably small here: at 10:1, Maurepas School is leaner than roughly 94% of Louisiana schools and 40% under the state's 16.8:1 norm, more adult attention per pupil than most peers.

Its free-meal eligibility rate of 64.0% lands close to the Louisiana typical range, neither a high- nor low-need campus by this measure.

Enrollment of 301 puts it in the smaller third of Louisiana schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index lands in the lower third of 1,330 scored Louisiana schools.

Among 292 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need Louisiana schools statewide, it ranks #237, in the lower tier once campus size and economic need are matched.

Its student body is predominantly White (86% of enrollment) (diversity index 25/100).

Counselor coverage runs a bit thin, about 301 students per counselor, somewhat past the ASCA-recommended 250:1 benchmark.

Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 25.2% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).

The surrounding Livingston Parish spends $11,995 per pupil, 27% below the Louisiana average, a leaner-resourced district than most.

Its district draws 23.7% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.

The federal civil-rights collection also records 3 expulsions at this campus for 2021-22.
