Principal's Message

St. George Students are awesome scientists!

As part of our focus on STEM, students in all grade levels from PreK through 8th grade begin their science units with the scientific method. Our 6th graders participated in a crime scene activity. 7th grade students are studying plant growth.

Through the scientific method, students create hypotheses, collect and record data, graph data, and draw conclusions. 

PreK students conducted a letter rescue STEM activity.

Why we choose to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital:

• St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats, and defeats childhood cancer.
•  No family ever receives a bill from St. Jude – not for treatment, travel, housing, or food. St. Jude wants the family to focus on the health of the child.
• The impact of the St. Jude Baton Rouge Affiliate Clinic at Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Health is felt throughout the community making it possible for some patients to receive treatment locally.
• All research is shared freely with doctors and hospitals throughout the world. Any local hospital can utilize the treatments and protocols developed at St. Jude.

Join us on Thursday, August 31 at 11:30 am via Zoom for an Ask The Experts webinar “Screen Extremes: Children and Digital Addictions.” Help your child have a healthy relationship with digital
