Every day matters when it comes to your child's success, and consistent attendance is key to academic growth. Even a few missed days here and there can add up to missed learning opportunities.
As the holidays and seasonal sickness approach, let's work together to keep our students healthy and in the classroom. We’re sharing some important reminders about excuses and tips for staying healthy so every student can reach their full potential, starting with regular attendance.
Every absence, whether excused or not, means missing out on critical instruction, social interactions and opportunities to learn, grow and thrive. We appreciate your partnership in helping to prioritize attendance, each and every day. Let’s make every day count!
Great job, Bulldogs! 🎮🐾

✨ Spotlight on Early Childhood Education in Lafourche ✨
Today we were honored to host a special visit to our Little Arrows Learning Academy at Chackbay Elementary School, one of the Lafourche Parish School District’s Early Childhood Microcenters.
This visit highlighted the shared commitment across state and local leaders to expand access to high-quality early childhood experiences for Lafourche’s youngest learners. Together, we continue to build strong foundations for lifelong success -- one child, one classroom, and one community at a time.
Pictured are Marcus Thomas, Director of Early Childhood Systems with the Office of the Governor; Sandy Holloway, BESE District 3 Board Member; Barry Carter, LDOE Assistant Superintendent of Early Childhood Education; Jarod Martin, LPSD Superintendent; Jimi Encalade, LPSD Director of Federal Programs; and Semonne Holloway-Guidry, Director of Little Arrows Learning Academy.
