Superintendent's Messages

I am incredibly proud to share our newest video and campaign with you: The Ascension Difference.

As the largest school district to consistently maintain an “A” rating and perform at high levels across the board, we are often asked a simple but powerful question: What is the secret to our success? While there are many factors behind our success, it ultimately comes down to our students.

As we wrap up the semester, our hearts are full of gratitude. We are incredibly thankful for the hard work, dedication, and resilience of our students, teachers, and staff. Every day, they show up, do their best, and support one another, and that makes our Ascension school community truly special.
 

We are heading into the final week of the fall semester, and it's hard to believe how quickly the time has flown! Our students have been working hard to stay focused, keep up with their schoolwork, and finish the semester strong, all while our school halls are beginning to sparkle with a little holiday spirit. It’s been a busy (and festive!) time on our campuses, and we are proud of the effort our students are showing.

I want to take a moment to share some incredible news and, more importantly, to thank you. Our district has once again earned an “A” rating from the Louisiana Department of Education, and we increased our District Performance Score to a 96 “A.”

As we complete the first two full weeks of the 2025-26 school year, I want to share some of the exciting work happening across our schools.
