St. Helena Parish School District -

We’re thrilled to share a wonderful development from our Agriculture program at St. Helena College and Career Academy! Our dedicated agriculture learners have successfully built a new chicken coop as part of their hands-on learning experience.
This project not only enhances their understanding of animal husbandry and sustainable farming practices, but also contributes to our school’s commitment to experiential education. The coop will house chickens raised by the learners, and will serve as a living classroom for lessons in biology, responsibility, and entrepreneurship.

Learners were able to have a lunchtime chat with our local Army recruiter.

Seniors and Juniors met with Jostens to begin ordering supplies and class rings.

It's time! You are encouraged to claim your one-time tailgating spot as soon as possible for Homecoming 2025!

Today our learners brought science to life as we launched our very first Makerspace session of the school year! Building on their in-class exploration of the force of electricity, learners got hands-on in the lab to design and begin building their own electric race cars. The energy in the room was electric as they connected classroom theory with real-world application. But we're just getting started! Next week, we’ll continue the session to finish the builds and test the speed of each car in a friendly race to see engineering in action. 🏁⚙️ #sthelenawinning #RETHINKsthelena

Join Our Team!

Yesterday marked a pivotal moment for our student interns as they take the next step toward their professional journey! During our Match Day Ceremony, we proudly paired talented, driven learners with dedicated community partners who will mentor, challenge, and inspire them throughout their internship experience. These matches are more than placements; they’re opportunities to learn, lead, and leave a lasting impact. Interns will gain hands-on experience, deepen their knowledge, and contribute meaningfully to organizations working to make a difference in our communities. Congratulations to all of our interns and Thank You to all of our partners! #sthelenawinning #rethinksthelena

Today, our K–12 learners participated in an exciting Virtual STEM Day filled with hands-on exploration and discovery! 🧪🔬 The spotlight was on the lungs 🫁, and learners engaged in 4 interactive activities that brought science to life in meaningful ways. From exploring how lungs function to creating models and observing experiments, every learner had the chance to think, create, and discover. A huge THANK YOU to our amazing teachers and staff for guiding and supporting our learners throughout the day—and to our learners for showing curiosity, energy, and excitement for STEM! We are proud to see our learners actively involved in science learning that inspires future innovators. 🌍✨ #StHelenaWinning #RETHINKStHelena
