The instructional focus of Park Forest Middle Creative Sciences and Arts Magnet is STEAM education. The STEAM concept infuses components of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics throughout the core curriculum to offer students unique learning experiences that prepare them for high school and beyond. Students use project-based learning to investigate and explore the areas of animation, robotics, coding, entertainment technology and renewable energy. Raiders develop 21st-century critical thinking skills through scientific inquiry and the engineering design process. A partnership with Global Geospatial Institute using GIS software allows students to find new information through project-based learning, real- world problem-solving and service-learning to prepare them to live, compete and successfully function in their community and global society.

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.
