Message from Superintendent Melissa M. Stilley

We're very excited to join the DonorsChoose District Partnership Program because it opens up new opportunities for teachers to fund projects that will help them provide the kind of educational experiences our students need to be prepared to thrive in the 21st Century. By partnering with DonorsChoose, we can better support Tangipahoa Parish School System teachers who are creating lessons that increase students' excitement about coming to school every day.

About Tangipahoa Parish School System

Tangipahoa Parish is one of the fastest growing parishes in the state of Louisiana. The small town living nestled in between the busy crossroads of Baton Rouge and New Orleans makes our communities an ideal place for families to settle into home. Our communities stretch from the rolling hills of Kentwood, to the beautiful marshes of Manchac, making a unique layout for our servicing schools. Children have the opportunity to get a solid start on education by applying to our early childhood and PreK programs and we now have a virtual learning option . Our schools boast many specialty programs such as Magnet Schools, Montessori education, and IB Programmes. The instruction provided by our staff is student-centered with the overall duty to create lifelong learners.

We believe the Tangipahoa Parish School System exists to ensure every student graduates high school prepared to secure high wage, high demand jobs and to be productive citizens equipped for college and/or the workforce. In order to accomplish this, the school system must continue to focus on ensuring that every single student obtains our eight critical goals - the pathway to success! The quality of our public education system impacts economic development and growth in our parish. We know that when students graduate equipped to be successful and productive citizens, the cycle of poverty will be broken. We believe, therefore, that all employees who support the education of students must make every effort to meet the needs of all students in granting them the fullest possible educational opportunities.
