The Lafourche Parish School District is proud to join public schools across Louisiana in observing Celebrate Freedom Week!

Held annually each September to coincide with Constitution Day and Constitution Week, this special observance focuses on building civic understanding and constitutional literacy among our students. It provides an opportunity for children of all ages to learn about the fundamental rights we enjoy as Americans and the shared responsibilities we carry as active, engaged citizens.

As we reflect on these basic ideals, we encourage our students to think about the role they can play in shaping our future. By understanding our foundational documents, including the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, and the freedoms they protect, may they be inspired to become informed leaders of our community and beyond.

Workforce Wednesday is back for Year Four!

We are so excited to kick off another incredible year of our Workforce Wednesday partnership with the Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce, which brings local business leaders and professionals directly into our 8th grade classrooms to share first-hand information about diverse career pathways available right here in our community. These visits help our students expand their career horizons beyond their immediate families and connect what they learn in school to their future goals.

In its first three years, Workforce Wednesday has connected more than 3,000 middle schoolers with local career experiences and opportunities. As a result of this partnership’s overwhelming success, the Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce recently received the 2026 Excellence in Workforce Development Award from the Louisiana Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (LACCE).

Thanks to the Chamber and these participating businesses for investing in the educational journey of our students and strengthening the future workforce of Lafourche Parish:

Great leaders never stop learning!

Today we recognize two of our outstanding school administrators, Andrea Rogers, assistant principal of Bayou Blue Elementary, and Cameron Walls, assistant principal of Thibodaux High School, on being chosen for the Louisiana Department of Education's prestigious Aspiring Principal Fellowship. As two of only 50 educators from 22 school systems selected statewide, Andrea and Cameron are participating in this year-long leadership cohort to hone the skills, knowledge and confidence to successfully guide students and staff in the role of principal.

These two leaders are already incredible assets to our district, and we commend their commitment to personal and professional growth, academic excellence, and the long-term success of our schools. We are excited to see the lasting impact they will make on our schools and community, and we’re incredibly proud to have them on our team.

The Lafourche Parish School District McKinney-Vento Program recently hosted its annual districtwide Parental Day at Lockport Middle School. This year’s inspiring theme, “Aviate, Navigate & Educate with the McKinney-Vento Program,” reflected the program’s commitment to helping families overcome barriers, connect with valuable resources, and empower students to achieve academic success.

The event welcomed 140 students and their families for a day filled with educational opportunities, community partnerships, and essential support services.

The program was honored to welcome Dr. Antiqua Hunter, Louisiana Department of Education State McKinney-Vento Coordinator, who delivered an encouraging message to families about the importance of educational stability and the resources available through the McKinney-Vento Program. Pittre Walker addressed the participating vendors, expressing appreciation for their continued partnership and dedication to serving families throughout the parish. Melissa Walker of Catholic Charities shared valuable information about the organization’s programs and services that help families facing housing and other challenges.

A highlight of the event was the participation of 29 community vendors, who provided information and resources to help families access educational, health, counseling, employment, and community support services. Participating organizations included AmeriHealth, Ascent, Bayou Lafourche Area Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Bayou Land Families Helping Families, Bi-Parish Bayou National Association of University Women (NAUW), Caring Angels Transportation, Catholic Charities, Chiasson Eye Care, Cups and Capabilities, LLC, Community Action, Family Start Corporation, Fletcher Technical Community College, Lafourche Parish Library, Lafourche Parish School District Migrant, Pre-K, and Indian Education Departments, Lafourche Parish Brief Therapy, LPSD PAC Child Search, Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office, Magnolia, Office of Public Health, Ochsner St. Anne General Hospital, South Central Louisiana Human Services Authority (SCLHSA), Shining for Cells, and Start Corporation.

The McKinney-Vento Program also extends heartfelt appreciation to its generous contributors whose support helped make the event a success: Acadia Family Dentistry, Big Mike’s Smokehouse, CanU Tri-Parish, Entergy, LOC, Lowe’s, Swamp Bayou Kitchen, Synergy Bank, Visions Outreach, & Williams and Technical College.

“This event would not have been possible without the unwavering support of our community partners, vendors, and contributors,” said the Quintina Brown, LPSD homeless liaison. “Together, we are helping families navigate barriers, access critical resources, and create brighter futures for our students.”

The annual Parental Day serves as the McKinney-Vento Program’s districtwide parental engagement event, bringing together families, schools, and community organizations to strengthen partnerships that support students experiencing homelessness. As a reminder all students have to re-qualify for McKinney-Vento services each school year. Families who are in need of services should complete required forms for the 2026-2027 school year.
