The Louisiana Department of Education, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is offering families assistance in purchasing food to help offset school meals missed during the COVID-19 closures. The emergency food benefit is available to ALL children who would normally receive free or reduced meals at school and to ALL students who attend a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) school.
St. Mary Parish CEP schools include the following:
Therefore, a parent whose child attends any one of these schools is eligible to apply, as well as any parent whose child is eligible for free/reduced meals at Berwick High and Berwick Jr. High
This is an incredible opportunity for families to obtain assistance in a quick and easy process. The portal for applying opens on Monday, May 18th. Applications are due by June 8, 2020.
More information about the Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) program can be accessed through the state's digital flyer. The flyer includes links to the application portal and frequently-asked questions (FAQs) about the program.
Round 1 PreK registration opened on Thursday, May 7, and will close on May 21, 2020.

St. Mary Parish Public Schools will begin registration for pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, and first grade students at area schools. In accordance with the age guidelines set by the Louisiana Department of Education, all pre-kindergarten students must be four (4) years old and all kindergarten students must be five (5) years old on or before September 30, 2020, for the 2020-2021 school session. Any student entering first grade in the fall and not currently enrolled in a public school kindergarten should register on the designated registration days.
Parents and guardians are asked to attend registration at the school in their attendance zone. Registration for elementary schools in St. Mary Parish will be held from 10:00 AM until 2:00 PM on Thursday May 7, 2020. This may change if the Stay-at- Home order is extended. We will set up registration outside and have chairs set up six feet apart in order to keep everyone safe.
Early registration is essential as it enables the school system to plan accordingly for personnel and teaching materials, thereby ensuring a successful start to the new school year. The deadline for the first round of registrations is May 21. Students who register after the initial deadline will be placed on the round two list and will be assigned to a class based on availability.
