Eros didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.
Jackson Parish School District
Eros’s K–12 school district, shared with Chatham, East Hodge, Hodge, Jonesboro, North Hodge and more. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $16,996 per pupil, $9,443 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
Louisiana districts overall: 47% local, 34% state, 19% federal.
