Parents, As you know we have been somewhat lax in adhering to our posted dress code. In order to show more pride in our school, we are asking everyone to revisit the regulations and help us ensure compliance. Beginning Monday, February 24, students will be expected to be dressed appropriately. If an elementary student comes to school out of compliance, they will receive a non-compliance slip that requires a parent's signature and must be returned the next day. Please help us enforce the policy so that our focus can remain on instruction in the classroom. Thank you!

We are using a new site to do online registrations. It is not ready to launch yet, but be patient. As soon as it is up and running, we will send out the link. 

Come cheer on our school winner, 5th grader, Riya Gartia, in the Regional Spelling Bee on Saturday, March 8 at 8am in the school auditorium. She will be competing against other school winners in the area for a chance to represent Baton Rouge at the National Scripps Spelling Bee in May. We are so proud of Riya!!!

If at least 50% of students in a classroom sign up and three students complete Finn's mission, the class will earn two Amazon gift cards for classroom needs!  We are anxious to see which class has the most students signed up and completing Finn’s Mission.

I have had the privilege of witnessing great instruction and engagement in our middle school classrooms this week. From hands-on science experiments to thought-provoking discussions and creative problem-solving, our students are engaging in truly amazing lessons that showcase their curiosity and growth.

It’s inspiring to see our teachers create dynamic learning environments where our cubs are challenged, supported, and encouraged to think critically. The enthusiasm and effort our students displaying is a testament to the vibrant academic community we are building together.
