The National School Public Relations Association has announced St. Charles Parish Public Schools as the recipient of 24 awards in its 2025 Publications and Digital Media Excellence Contest. Awards are given at three levels: Honorable Mention, Award of Merit, and Award of Excellence.

At its April 30^th meeting, the St. Charles Parish School Board approved a series of impactful investments designed to support students, strengthen school operations, and enhance the district’s ability to recruit and retain top talent. These actions include a 5% pay raise for all full-time and permanent part-time employees, a one-time $2,500 recruitment and retention payment for returning employees, and the implementation of a comprehensive school support plan.

As we close out the 2024-2025 school year, PowerSchool fees will be converted at the beginning of July into “Start of Year” balances for the next school year. Therefore, the Online School Payments website's ability to pay for items relating to PowerSchool fees will be disabled from Friday, July 18th through Sunday, July 20th, 2025.

Activity-related items, such as spirit wear, camps, or other events, will be unaffected if they are available. If you have any current PowerSchool fees outstanding from the 2024-2025 school year, the final date for payment through the Online School Payments website will be Friday, July 4th, 2025. 

You may access the online fee payment system at http://osp.osmsinc.com/stcharlesparish/ or on your school’s webpage under “For Families" and then "Student Fees" and then "Online Fee Payments.” Please visit the FAQ there if you have website-specific questions.

Please contact your school's bookkeeper if you have any questions about the transition process. 

The St. Charles Parish School Board held its monthly meeting on May 21, 2025, at the Professional Learning Center in Luling.

Applications are currently being accepted for the Ethel Schoeffner Scholarship from college students currently majoring in education or nursing who graduated from Destrehan or Hahnville High School. The scholarship awards $500 per semester up to a maximum of $2,500.
