 Calcasieu Parish School System
LA4 Title I 8(g) |
Our Mission
To provide a solid foundation for four-year-old students
by introducing learning experiences that may enrich,
encourage, and promote learning through play. The use of
the environment in their everyday lives provides
opportunities for the children to develop and grow in the
cognitive, social-emotional, physical, and oral language
development areas. We believe regular attendance, parental
involvement, schools, community, and family services working
together are essential for young children to succeed.
Funding Sources

funds. The primary funding sources are, Temporary Assistance
for Needy Families
(TANF), Board of Elementary and Secondary
