St. Charles Parish Public Schools Earns "A" District Rating
District Performance Score Increases for Fourth Consecutive Year, as State Transitions to New Accountability System

“These results are a powerful reminder that when students, employees, and families feel supported and know they belong here, they thrive. Earning an ‘A’ is a historic accomplishment for our school system, and it reflects the hard work, consistency, and dedication of our entire school community.”
~ Superintendent Dr. Ken Oertling
