Holy cow... I did a little googling. Seems that this is a significant improvement for this school:
8th Grade
Math
9% (2004)
11% (2003)
4% (2002)
The state average for Math was 51% in 2005.
English language arts
8% (2004)
6% (2003)
7% (2002)
The state average for English language arts was 50% in 2005.

Dig around in there a little... it's terrifying.
Orleans Parish school students were given a gift with Katrina. The school board "lost" either 23 million or 45 million dollars last year.

Supposed to be parent reviews, but I suppose that's possible.

" I attended L.B. Lanry Middle and L.B. Landry Senior High. I know that I am young but I have great comments about Landry. The academic prgrams are awesome. The music department, the basketball and football teams are also great. I would do anything to go back to Landry. Parent involvement is really good at the school. I got put out of Landry in the middle of my 10th grade year. I don't care but I still would recommend anyone to put their children in that school. Landry has good teachers, brilliant students and more. "
