Summer Adventure Camps (June 7 - 22, 2021) will be offered free-of-charge to Pre-K through 5th graders. Students will participate in fun and engaging art, PE, reading/social studies, and math/science activities. This exciting adventure will take place on elementary school campuses in St. Mary Parish. 

Daily sessions will begin at 7:30 AM and end at 12:00 PM. Students will be served breakfast and lunch daily. Bus transportation will be provided.

School principals will be sharing application information with students at their schools. Responses must be submitted before April 9, 2021.

Students are expected to work to their fullest potential and behave in such a way that they will learn and not interfere with the learning of their classmates. In addition, student attendance will be carefully monitored to ensure each child receives maximum benefits from this program. Students can be dropped from the program and replaced with other students from the school's waiting list.

From Mr. Stadalis: 

District elementary schools will begin scheduling appointments for the registration of Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students on Tuesday, Feb. 23.

Parents must call the school to arrange for a registration appointment. No drop-in registrations will be accepted. 

Because of the limited availability of seats, appointments for Round 1 registration of Pre-Kindergarten students will be scheduled only from March 1 through March 26.

• Pre-K students will not be registered without all required documentation.
• Registration does not guarantee acceptance into the Pre-K program. 

Parents or adult guardians must supply the following documents to complete registration: 

• Birth certificate (must be four years old on or before September 30, 2021)
• Immunization record
• Social security card
• Proof of residency (current utility bill)
