The East Baton Rouge Parish School System recognized its 2012 Students of the Year at an awards reception held February 8 at the Professional Development Center.

  

All the schools in the district were eligible to enter a student representative for the awards.  There were 10 finalists this year.  The three students recognized for each level (elementary, middle and high school) as students of the year represent the best and brightest in the School System.  The three now will go on to compete at the regional level.


French Delegation Observes Schools' Language Immersion Programs  

 

WMS French Delegation  

Sen. Louis Duvernois, a member of the French Senate, and a French delegation toured two East Baton Rouge Parish School System sites January 24.  Accompanying him was Jean-Claude Brunet, French Consul general; Philippe Aldon, Attaché for French Education; and Damien Régnard, an elected official representing the French living abroad.


In the morning at Westdale Middle School, the delegation visited the French immersion classrooms.  The group also learned about the school's project developed with a school in Rennes, France, where students share ideas from each site.
