LEAP 2026 assessments for our elementary and junior high schools are scheduled to take place from Monday, April 27th through Wednesday, May 6th.
* Ensure your child arrives on time each day, rested and ready.
* Communicate any attendance concerns to your school so make-up arrangements can be made promptly.

STEM students who received their letter at the Winter Athletic Banquet will be ordering their Letterman jackets tomorrow after lunch. Please ensure your student is aware and prepared to meet with Mr. Leake to order at that time.
STEM Students and their teacher, Craig Schwartzenberg, were featured in an LSU blog referencing the new Louisiana Training Platform (LTP). The LTP is desinged to remove barriers to advanced STEM learning, making hands-on learning accessible for every student with the most up to date information in our fast paced world of technology. Using tools like this helps our students to gain interest in careers in science and prepares them with the knowledge needed to advance to the next level in college or the workforce!

Good afternoon,
All Pointe Coupee buses going to the Innis and Lettsworth areas may be late due to an overturned 18 wheeler at the corner of Gayden Rd (LA 1) and Purpera Road. If your student lives in this area you can expect a delayed afternoon arrival from the bus if the area has not been cleared by the time buses get to this area.
Good afternoon STEM Families, The Junior Ring Ceremony will be held at the STEM gym on April 14th at 6:00pm. Juniors will be able to invite 7 guests (Fire Marshall regulations). Wristbands will be given to juniors prior to the date of the ceremony. Please see the attached flyers for dress code and other details.



Juniors and Seniors will take the ACT test tomorrow at STEM! Parents please encourage your student to get a good night's rest and be at school on time tomorrow! Students must charge their computer tonight and bring it with their charger to school. This test determines your child's eligibility for TOPS. See the flyer for details on how imprtant it is to get a composite score of 20! Seniors have three more test dates to reach those composite scores for the highest TOPS possible! Juniors must make at least a 20 composite to be able to leave school mid day as a senior! Good luck to all our Juniors and Seniors!
