The St. Charles Parish School Board held its monthly meeting on October 22, 2025, at the St. Charles Parish School Board Office in Luling. Agenda items included proclamations, bid authorization requests, personnel items, request for proposals and lobbying services, ratification of substantial completion at the School Board Office, Ad Hoc Committee recommendations, policy updates, and recognitions.

St. Charles Parish Public Schools continues to strengthen Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) as part of Goal A of the district’s Long Range Strategic Action Plan, focused on ensuring every student achieves high levels of learning by mastering essential standards.

In September, approximately 350 PLC leaders, staff development coordinators, school administrators, and Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment team members participated in professional development centered on assessment design and best practices.

The St. Charles Parish unanimously approved a proposal to expand Pre-K access beginning with the 2026-2027 school year. Under the plan, Pre-K4 will be offered to all four-year-olds residing in St. Charles Parish at their neighborhood schools. While enrollment is not mandatory, any four-year-old child will be guaranteed a seat.

The plan also strengthens opportunities for three-year-olds. Both East Bank Head Start and Carver Early Learning Centers will transition to serving only Pre-K3 students, with up to five new classes planned.
