Parent and Family Engagement

The Lafayette Parish School System recognizes the valuable role the family plays in a child's successful progress through school. Parental and family engagement in school activities is an important factor in student achievement. Schools with strong parental/family engagement have students that achieve higher scores on standardized tests and performance based assessments.  This school district encourages and highly values parental/family engagement.
