The new faculty parking lot at St. Charles Elementary has been poured. This milestone is part of a much larger campus improvement project that included a new 13,000+ square foot classroom addition, which opened after Thanksgiving Break last fall, as well other vital upgrades, including a secure single-point entry and a new chairlift to access the second floor. We are so excited to see all of these improvements come together to create a safer, more accessible, and modern learning environment for our students and staff!

While most high school students are enjoying a break from the books this summer, there is a ton of hands-on, work-based learning happening right now at the LPSD Career Magnet Center. In addition to Fast Forward Summers internships in carpentry and culinary arts, we have 14 Diesel students hard at work at CMC taking dual enrollment courses through Fletcher Technical Community College. We recently caught them in the shop sharpening their basic welding skills. Check them out in action!

An older male instructor, wearing glasses, a dark blue button-down short-sleeve shirt with a name badge, blue jeans, work boots, and a welding helmet pushed up on his head, stands on the right. He is writing a small diagram on a large black vertical metal divider panel with a piece of chalk.  In the foreground and center, two students stand with their backs mostly to the camera, listening to the instructor. The student in the center wears a light blue button-down denim shirt, blue jeans, brown work boots, and a protective welding mask on his head. To his left, another student is partially visible, also wearing a welding mask.  The workshop environment features concrete flooring, exposed brick and block walls, overhead fluorescent lighting, and welding equipment visible in the lower-left foreground.
A horizontal photograph of a student welding in a dark shop station.  The student is positioned on the left side of the frame, seen from the back and side, hunched over a metal workbench. They are wearing a long-sleeve grey shirt, heavy protective welding gloves, and a safety helmet. A bright, intense white and golden light glows from the point of welding directly in front of the student, illuminating the concrete block wall behind the workbench.  To the right of the glowing weld, a flexible overhead exhaust vent hose hangs down toward the station. Small metal hand tools rest on the dark surface of the workbench next to a vertical iron welding jig holding metal plates. The rest of the foreground and surrounding workshop booth are cast in dark shadows.
A horizontal, wide-angle photograph capturing a row of industrial welding stations in a high school or technical workshop.  Two students are actively welding in separate, adjacent booths. On the left, a student in a dark long-sleeve shirt stands facing away from the camera, hunched over their workbench. To their right, a second student is seated or leaning over their workstation. Both students are obscured by extremely bright, brilliant bursts of white and blue welding light that create powerful lens flares extending across the booths. Smoke gathers near the ceiling above their stations.  In the foreground, several rolling industrial carts hold welding machines, heavy gas cylinders (including one tan and one brown cylinder with mesh netting), and wrapped black and green hoses. Overhead, fluorescent lights illuminate each individual booth, and thick, black corrugated exhaust duct tubes run vertically up to the ceiling to vent fumes. A metal work table with scraps sits in the lower left corner.
A full-length, eye-level photograph of two male welding students posing side-by-side inside a workshop. They are both looking toward the camera and wearing safety equipment, including clear safety glasses, heavy yellow-brown leather welding gloves, work boots, and welding helmets pushed up on their heads.  The student on the left is wearing a light blue denim button-down shirt, dark blue jeans, and dark brown boots. He stands with his legs slightly apart, holding a flat metal tool in his right hand and flashing a peace sign with his left hand.  The student on the right wears a grey button-down shirt, faded light-wash jeans, and light brown boots. He stands with his arms crossed over his chest.  To the far left is a tall, translucent red plastic welding safety screen. The background features the open concrete floor of the shop, with industrial welding machinery and overhead lighting visible.
A vertical, eye-level photograph showing a student welding at a workbench inside a workshop station.  The student is positioned on a metal stool, facing away and to the right of the camera. He is wearing a light blue button-down denim shirt, blue jeans, dark work boots, protective welding gloves, and a full welding helmet with graphic detailing. He leans forward over the dark metal workbench as a bright, brilliant white and blue light sparks from the tip of his welding tool.  The station features a concrete block back wall and a large dark metal vertical partition on the left side. A flexible, corrugated ventilation duct hangs down vertically behind the student to collect fumes. Various tools, including pliers and a wire brush, rest on the workbench to the right of the welding area. Elements of industrial shop machinery and cables occupy the dark foreground and borders of the frame.

A vertical, medium shot of a student actively welding at a workbench inside a workshop booth.  The student is seated on a stool, facing right and hunched forward over a dark metal workbench. He is wearing a tan button-down long-sleeve work shirt, blue jeans, brown work boots, and a protective off-white welding mask with graphic designs on the front. A brilliant, intense white and blue light with a purple lens flare bursts from the point of welding, illuminating the station and generating a small cloud of smoke.  In the lower-left foreground, a blue Miller industrial machine is visible, with a white trucker hat resting on top of it. A thick black cable runs from the student's welding tool down to the concrete floor.  The background features a worn, light-colored concrete block wall. A large, flexible grey exhaust vent hose hangs down vertically above the student's head to capture smoke. A yellow and black DeWalt tool and loose welding rods rest on the bench to the right of the glowing weld.
A horizontal, wide-angle photograph capturing a spacious row of five industrial welding stations aligned along a wall in a technical training workshop.  Several students are positioned inside their individual booths with their backs to the camera, working at their respective workbenches. In the middle booth, an intense, brilliant white and blue flare of welding light bursts outward, illuminating the center of the room. The other students are in various stages of preparing or working in darker booths.  In the foreground on the concrete floor, a series of mobile rolling carts are spaced out in front of the stations. Each cart holds industrial welding machinery, thick wrapped cables, and heavy, vertical brown gas cylinders. To the far left, a metal utility table holds scraps of iron pipe, and to the far right, a broom and dustpan rest against the wall. Near the ceiling, an intricate network of metal pipes and thick, black corrugated exhaust duct tubes run down vertically into each booth to vent fumes under fluorescent strip lighting.

Middle and high school students representing Lafourche Parish School District kicked off their summer in a big way! Earlier this month, they traveled to Natchitoches to attend the annual Louisiana Association of Student Councils (LASC) Summer Leadership Workshop at Northwestern State University, where they mastered effective leadership and meeting skills, communication techniques, group dynamics and team building. They had a great time networking with other student leaders from around the state and are returning with lots of new ideas to kick off the upcoming school year.

The LPSD legacy ran deep at this year’s workshop with more than a dozen of our Student Council alumni returning to Natchitoches as counselors and support staff. We are so proud to see our former students giving back and helping to mentor and shape the next generation of leaders in our schools and community. Congratulations to recent THS grad Cullen Murillo, who was honored with LASC’s Mr. Phil Legacy Scholarship. The future of Lafourche Parish is incredibly bright!

Peep Our Progress 🛠️

The home side stadium repairs at Thibodaux High School are wrapping up. Repairs on the visitor side will be completed following the 26-27 football season.

All three of our high school stadiums are undergoing vital structural concrete repairs and waterproofing upgrades to preserve and protect the facility. These improvements will help prevent future deterioration, enhance safety, and extend the service life of the stadium for students, athletes, and the community.

Thank you for your patience and support as we work to provide a safer, stronger environment for our students, community and visitors.

In the center right, a worker wearing a bright orange high-visibility shirt and a hard hat stands in the yellow basket of an elevated JCB scissor lift. They are using a tool to patch or work on a thick concrete support pillar beneath the tiered stadium seating.  To the far left, a red boom lift basket is extended high up near a slanted, vertical concrete support column. In the foreground, a tall, yellow mobile scaffolding tower stands on the concrete ground.  Behind a chain-link security fence at the base of the grandstands, a purple building structure is visible with the words "FIGHTING TIGERS" painted on it in large yellow block letters. The sky overhead is overcast and cloudy.

The perspective looks up and across a wide, smooth grey concrete walkway or concourse area in the foreground.  To the right, tiers of grey concrete bleacher seating with long metal benches rise steeply toward the top of the stadium. A stainless steel safety railing with chain-link mesh panels separates the walkway from the seating area. In the upper-left background, a  two-story press box with large glass windows sits at the top of the grandstands, next to a tall stadium light pole.
A close-up shot of a thick, vertical concrete support pillar beneath a stadium showing visible repair work. The left side and upper edge of the pillar have been patched with fresh, smooth, dark grey concrete, contrasting with the aged, weathered off-white concrete of the original structure. Fine surface cracks are visible on the older, unpatched sections of the column.  In the background behind the pillar, a cluttered under-tier storage area is visible through a chain-link fence. The area contains stacked metal scaffolding pieces, large rectangular black road cases or panels, and folded tarps resting on a wheeled cart.
Let’s hear it for our incredible LPSD bus drivers and monitors who finished the school year strong with perfect attendance for the month of May!

Louisiana’s results on the National Education Scorecard were released Wednesday, and the Lafourche Parish School District continues to demonstrate marked growth among our peers, particularly in the area of math.

Lafourche Parish was one of four Louisiana school systems recognized as a “District of the Rise” for showing exceptional progress in math compared to similar districts around the state. LPSD received similar recognition last fall for demonstrating the third-highest growth in math proficiency in grades three through eight on LEAP.

“This recognition is a testament to the effort of our students and the unwavering dedication of our educators,” said Superintendent Jarod W. Martin. “This achievement reflects countless hours of hard work in our classrooms and a collective commitment to academic excellence across the district. While we celebrate this significant milestone, it also serves as a catalyst for future growth. We remain steadfast in our mission to build upon this momentum, ensuring every student has the tools and support necessary to reach their full potential.”

Overall, Louisiana was number one among states in reading growth, number two in math growth, and the only state to surpass 2019 levels in both reading and math.

We are incredibly grateful for our families and our community for their continued support as we strive for excellence. Let’s keep moving forward together!
