CONCORDIA EDUCATION CENTER

Concordia Education Center is a Title I public school that is part of the Concordia Parish school district, located in Ferriday, LA with about 23 students offering grade levels from 4th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 2 teachers, Concordia Education Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Concordia Education Center, located on Kindergarten Road in Ferriday, Louisiana, serves as a specialized instructional facility within the Concordia Parish School District. Unlike a traditional K-12 campus, the center functions as an alternative learning environment designed to support students who require a different educational setting than what is offered at their home schools. The facility focuses on providing tailored academic support and behavioral guidance to help students navigate challenges and remain on track toward their educational goals.

The center plays a vital role in the district’s efforts to offer inclusive and supportive programming for its diverse student body. By prioritizing smaller class sizes and focused instruction, the Concordia Education Center aims to foster a structured atmosphere where students can improve their academic performance and personal accountability. Through its location in Ferriday, it remains a key resource for families seeking specialized intervention and instructional alternatives within the parish.
