Thousands of students are enjoying their summer break, but the three-month lull often leaves kids without a nutritious meal. The EBRPSS’ Child Nutrition Program is ensuring kids don’t go hungry by offering free breakfast and lunch to students ages 0-18.
Free meals are provided for students May 24 to July 28. View the program dates and times and check listings to find the nearest locations.
In an effort to promote transparency and engage the community, the East Baton Rouge Parish School System has recently released a comprehensive infographic outlining its budget highlights for the upcoming school year. The district aims to provide stakeholders with a clear understanding of the financial priorities and initiatives for the education of local students.
To help ensure that our student athletes are ready for summer sports, camps and school athletics, Healthcare Centers in Schools and a host of other providers have coordinated with EBRPSS to host sports physicals at school sites throughout the district.
A completed LHSAA form is required for each student who will need a physical.

Thousands of students will walk across the stage in May of 2023 to pick up their high school diplomas on their way to the next stretch of life’s journey. Our hope is that we prepared them well. Our wish is that they enjoyed the ride. Our prayer is that they are successful and happy, that they are lifelong learners, and that they look back with fond memories of their days in the East Baton Rouge Parish School System. Go on and make us all proud, Class of 2023!

The Louisiana Department of Education has launched an online survey designed to evaluate the engagement of parents/guardians within five separate domains: creating a welcoming environment, collaboration in support of student learning, practicing effective communication, practicing sharing power and advocacy and facilitating community involvement. Available until June 2, the survey provides administrators and educators the opportunity to recognize strengths in their family engagement practices and create strategies for improvement.

The survey consists of 16 items and is designed to gather feedback from parents about the district as a whole and individual schools. The survey is designed to be completed by parents once per school (not child). If the parent/guardian has children in multiple schools, they should complete one survey per school.
