For the 2018-19 school year we are pleased to announce that the School Board has approved additional choices for parents regarding school uniforms. While nothing was removed from the long- standing uniform policy, the School Board did provide parents with additional uniform color and clothing choices.
The additional color choice for uniform polo shirts is Navy Blue, and each community was allowed to choose an additional school pride color worn at the principal’s discretion. Lacassine, Lake Arthur, and the Welsh communities have chosen the color red; Hathaway and Fenton have chosen royal blue while the communities of Elton and Jennings have chosen maroon. Additional uniform colors were added to socks, belts, undershirts, sweatshirts and jackets.
Additional clothing choices include ¼ zip jackets and leggings, both in uniform colors.
Students will be allowed to wear stud earrings, and hair styles must be of naturally occurring colors and shall not draw undue attention.
We hope these changes excite our students and provide our parents with choices that prove to be beneficial.

Christina Fontenot, Principal of Lacassine High has been named a state finalist for the Principal of the Year contest. Of the approximately 300 nominations, she was named earlier as one of the 48 semifinalists. Now she has been named as one of 9 state finalists. After face to face interviews, she will be honored at the 12th Annual Cecil J Picard Educator Excellence Symposium and Celebration in July.

Thank you to the professionals that make great education happen in Jefferson Davis Parish. We appreciate and salute you!
