Understanding the 2/10 Rating
Caddo Parish School District has earned an overall SchoolDistrictFinder rating of 2/10, placing it in the low-rated tier. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection (2017–18 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Louisiana is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Caddo Parish School District holds a low overall rating, with reading and math proficiency among the lowest in Louisiana on state assessments. Test results reflect many factors beyond the classroom, including community and economic conditions; a low score is a signal to research carefully, not a verdict on any individual school or teacher. Families in this area should research all available alternatives: inter-district transfers, charter schools, and magnet programs. Contact the district directly to understand exactly what programs are available at your assigned school.
Enrollment for Families in Zip Code 71004
Children in zip code 71004 are assigned to Caddo Parish School District for public school enrollment, covering grades Pre-K – 12th. School assignments are address-specific — your elementary, middle, and high school placements depend on your exact street address within zip code 71004, not just your neighborhood. Two homes on opposite ends of the same zip code may be assigned to different schools within the same district.
To confirm your specific school assignments, contact Caddo Parish School District at (318)603-7106 or visit the district’s official website.

Fall enrollment windows typically open in late winter or early spring; contact the district for exact dates and required steps.
