The faculty and staff of Southdowns will provide a quality pre-school education in a nurturing and safe environment to prepare students for the future.
Welcome to Southdowns Pre-K Center, where every child is valued, celebrated, and inspired to reach their fullest potential. It is my honor to welcome you to a school community dedicated exclusively to the education of our youngest learners.
At Southdowns, we proudly embrace the vision of One School. Two Pathways. This unique model allows us to provide exceptional early childhood education for all children while meeting the diverse needs of every learner.
Our first pathway offers a high-quality Pre-K experience focused on building a strong academic and social-emotional foundation through engaging, hands-on learning. Our second pathway provides specialized services for children with unique learning needs, ensuring they receive individualized instruction, support, and opportunities to thrive in an inclusive environment.
As the first dedicated Pre-K school in our area with a specialized arts program, we believe every child is a masterpiece waiting to be discovered. Through visual arts, performing arts, music, movement, and therapeutic art experiences, creativity is woven into every aspect of learning. Our school theme, “Creating a Masterpiece: One Child at a Time,” reflects our commitment to nurturing each child’s unique talents, imagination, and confidence.
Our commitment to inclusion extends beyond the classroom. Southdowns is proud to feature a one-of-a-kind inclusive playground, thoughtfully designed so children of all abilities can learn, play, explore, and build meaningful friendships together. We believe that some of life’s greatest lessons are learned through play, collaboration, and shared experiences.
When families choose Southdowns, they become part of a caring community where innovation, inclusion, and excellence come together to create extraordinary opportunities for young learners. Our dedicated faculty and staff are passionate about preparing children not only for kindergarten but for a lifetime of curiosity, creativity, and success.
Thank you for trusting us with your child’s earliest educational journey. We look forward to partnering with your family as we continue Creating a Masterpiece—One Child at a Time.
With appreciation,
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.
