Louisiana introduces revised school accountability system called Grow. Achieve. Thrive.

Beginning with the 2026 School Performance Scores (SPS), Louisiana is introducing a revised school accountability system called Grow. Achieve. Thrive.

The new system raises expectations for schools and focuses on three important measures of student success:

๐†๐‘๐Ž๐– โ€“ Are students making academic progress each year?
๐€๐‚๐‡๐ˆ๐„๐•๐„ โ€“ Are students meeting grade-level expectations in core subjects?
๐“๐‡๐‘๐ˆ๐•๐„ โ€“ Are high school students graduating prepared for college, careers, or service?

What does this mean for Avoyelles Parish Schools? Louisiana’s revised accountability system establishes a new baseline for School Performance Scores (SPS) and letter grades beginning in 2026. Because the scoring system has changed, results should not be directly compared with scores from previous years.

Over the coming weeks, Avoyelles Parish Schools will share information to help families, employees, and community understand these changes and what they mean for schools.

At Avoyelles Parish Schools, their commitment remains the same: helping every student grow, achieve, and prepare for a successful future.
