Students from J. A. Fair K-8 Preparatory School had an unforgettable trip to New Orleans during Spring Break! 🎉 From exploring the wildlife at the Audubon Zoo 🦁 to getting a behind-the-scenes look at the iconic Mardi Gras floats at Mardi Gras World 🎭, they soaked in all the sights and sounds of this amazing city. The group also had the opportunity to tour colleges and universities, inspiring future aspirations! 📚✨ What a fantastic way to learn, grow, and have fun!

Due to the threat of severe weather moving into our area, LRSD will dismiss school early today, all after-school activities are cancelled, and CARE will be closed. Elementary sites will dismiss at 1:30 p.m., followed by secondary schools at 2:30 p.m. This decision was made in the best interest of students and staff, in consultation with the National Weather Service, LRSD’s Emergency Management and Transportation teams, and surrounding districts. Please note that if tornado sirens are activated during these dismissal times, we will initiate our shelter-in-place procedures, and building doors will be locked until the threat has passed. Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the safety and well-being of our students and staff. Please stay safe.
