GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I have attended South Lafourche high school since my freshman year of high school. Compared to many schools in the area, I can say SL is one of the best.

I have asked a few people and from the lot of us we have reasoned that we have made some pretty good memories and even greater friends. We have learned a lot and had some amazing mentors to help us along the way. The school environment is pretty good, and we are actively trying to build morale among the students and staff. At times there are some problems, but overall it's not the worst and we always try to improve.

Positive learning environment with teachers who genuinely care about their students. Administration really takes the time to involve themselves in students lives and well being. The campus is a safe environment. There are many opportunities t get involved in extracurricular activities, clubs, service projects and group activities.
