PRESS RELEASE AUGUST 3, 2023
SABINE PARISH CELEBRATES SUCCESS IN STATE TEST SCORES
Sabine Parish Schools is excited to announce the achievements of its students in this
year's State LEAP test scores. Our students have demonstrated academic success,
securing improvements and achieving notable results across almost all subject areas.
The LEAP results for Sabine Parish Schools reflect the dedication and hard work of our
educators, staff, students, and parents, who continuously strive for excellence in
education. We are proud to report an overall increase in test scores, showcasing our
district's commitment to providing a high-quality learning environment that fosters
academic growth and achievement.
LEAP 2025 includes ELA, math, science, and social studies assessments for grades 3-
12. The tests measure the knowledge and skills defined by the state’s content
standards for each grade. Student scores are reported on five levels: Unsatisfactory,
Approaching Basic, Basic, Mastery, or Advanced. Louisiana measures a student's
proficiency by earning a score of Mastery or above on the LEAP assessment. As a
district, Sabine saw an increase in the proficiency of its students in all subject areas
except social studies. The decline in social studies was echoed throughout the state
and is one of the reasons we as a state are implementing a more rigorous social studies
curriculum beginning this school year.
We recognize that these achievements would not have been possible without our
community's unwavering support and collaboration. Parents, guardians, community
leaders, and all stakeholders have been instrumental in empowering our students to
reach their full potential. “We are proud of the accomplishments of our schools and
students and look forward to continued academic growth in the upcoming school year,”
said Superintendent Shane Wright.
