Let’s talk about credentials!!! Concordia Pariah Schools is offering some wonderful opportunities for our current 9th-11th grade students this summer! These opportunities are available ONLY by application, and we are uncertain of how many students will be accepted! Stop by and see Ms. Atkins to pick up your application. NOTE: Some programs require an initial credential, so please read carefully. These summer programs help our students work towards their credentials, internships, dual enrollment and get paid to do it! **Submitting an application does not mean that you (your child) will be accepted.** All applications are due by April 23rd to Central Office and given to Ms. Tenner.

PRESS RELEASE CONCORDIA PARISH SCHOOL BOARD December 11, 2024 The Concordia Parish School Board has been in negotiations with the United States in an attempt to move the School Board’s pending desegregation case toward dismissal. The desegregation case was originally filed on November 30, 1965. As a result of those negotiations, counsel for the United States and counsel for the School Board have developed this proposal which, if accepted by the School Board and implemented over the next three years, would entitle the School Board to seek dismissal of this longstanding matter. The Court has ordered that the School Board vote on this proposal before December 31, 2024. Before the School Board votes on the proposed consent order, however, the School Board will be hosting a community forum on December 17, 2024 at Vidalia Convention Center at 6:00pm. The public is invited to come and learn about the plan. School Board members want to hear from the public because the proposed consent order would cause changes throughout the school system, including where students attend schools, the Board’s hiring procedures, what types of transfers are allowed, and other areas of operation. A summary of the steps and changes the Board would be required to make, together with the proposed consent decree itself, may be found at Desegregation1965 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Lb9N9tU7lAtxZ9atec51SCuxR5eTohTh?usp=drive_link.
