VDR Creative Sciences & Arts Magnet School features an innovative PreK–5th grade STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Arts and Math) program. The school’s SmartLab allows students in all grades to engage in digital communications, mechanics and structures, robotics, software engineering, 3D printing, sustainability, and more. Our newest campus addition is the Renewable Energy lab where students learn about energy and work to make our school more energy efficient and environmentally conscious. Our outdoor classrooms and school gardens are also an integral part of our students’ education. Students express themselves through the Tigerettes dance team, robotics competition team, 4-H Club, Student Council, Lego Cub, Junior Beta Club, Drama Club, and others.
We are Villa del Rey, the best kept secret in Baton Rouge! Our mission is to educate, empower and equip all students to become consumers and producers in both their community and the global society. We uphold this mission for every child who enters our campus. We pride ourselves in cultivating an environment where students and teachers love coming to school. It is my belief that learning should be fun and reflect the interests of all students. We are proud to be the school that is large enough to meet your needs but small enough to know your name.
