EMPOWERED FOR SUCCESS
At The Dufrocq School, We engage our students in hands-on real world learning experiences empowering them to be productive citizens in a global society.
Our historical school, which is nestled in the heart of MidCity Baton Rouge, is named after John R. Dufrocq, Baton Rouge’s First Mayor. Dufrocq was established in 1923 and has been educating students for 100 years. Our vision is that all students succeed academically and are empowered and prepared for global success. We do this in a variety of ways through our traditional and magnet programs. We take pride in being one of two schools in our district that offers a Montessori Curriculum and the only school offering MicroSociety. MicroSociety is our school’s overarching theme that unites all of our academic programs with real-life learning experiences. Our dedicated community partnerships and support from our families are our strength. We are also proud to be a certified magnet school and a 2022 Magnet School of Excellence. The Dufrocq School is where “The Pursuit of Learning Begins.”
