School News
The Tangipahoa Parish School System will operate on a summer work schedule. All schools, the central office, and branch offices are open Monday through Thursday from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM and are closed on Fridays.
Normal operating hours will resume the week of July 21, 2025. We hope you have a great summer break!
Summer is a time for relaxation, but it doesn’t mean learning has to take a break. We challenge families to keep children engaged in educational activities to help maintain their academic skills during the summer months. Accept the challenge and use some of these fun and enriching summer activities that make learning enjoyable.
