@icareebr held its Middle School Youth Leadership Conference at Pennington, where students learned what it means to be a leader. They discovered the best ways to share important messages about preventing substance abuse and violence when they get back to school. Motivational speaker Jonathan Coats led exciting games to help the kids build their leadership skills while having a great time with friends from East Baton Rouge Parish!
Today, we’re shining a light on the people who help keep our schools clean, welcoming and ready for learning. 🧹✨

Everyone makes a splash while learning a life-saving skill! 💦🏊♂️
EBR Schools + YMCA swim lessons are helping our students build confidence and stay safe around the water. #weareebr #daretobegreat #letsgohigher
Making a splash for a skill that can save a life!
Through a partnership between EBR Schools and the YMCA of the Capital Area, elementary students are receiving free swim lessons and learning essential water-safety skills.
Community leaders joined the students in the pool, getting in on the action and showing their support for these young swimmers. It was a fun reminder that water safety is a skill worth making time for.
We’re proud to help remove barriers and give our students the skills, confidence and knowledge they need to stay safe around the water.
Experiencing issues with your student’s transportation? We want to help!
The East Baton Rouge Parish School System is advising families that school bus transportation may experience delays during the Friday afternoon commute home because of weather and road conditions across the parish. Transportation staff members are working to safely transport students while navigating possible heavy traffic, flooded areas and impacted roadways caused by
changing weather conditions.
District officials said student safety remains the top priority as drivers continue routes throughout the parish. The district appreciates the understanding and cooperation of families and the community during the weather event.
