Dear STPPS Family,


We hope all of you had a great start to the 2023-2024 school year. Parents and caretakers, your unwavering support has been instrumental in making these first few weeks a success. To our teachers and staff, thank you for working tirelessly to create engaging learning environments. As a community, we've come together to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for our students. 


As we settle into the rhythm of a new year, we want to take a moment to reflect on the journey we have had so far. The first few weeks of school have been nothing short of inspiring. So many great things have already happened and we have a lot more to look forward to.


Please take a look below to see an update from St. Tammany Parish Public Schools.
