LAFAYETTE, LA (Mar. 18, 2025) – Parents and stakeholders have been dedicated to finding ways to fund and continue the PreK French Immersion program at Myrtle Place Elementary for next school year. Superintendent Francis Touchet, Jr., has asked me to share the following update:
“Mr. Touchet values the community’s feedback on PreK French Immersion at Myrtle Place Elementary and greatly appreciates the involvement of parents and organizations committed to supporting the program. Following productive discussions, LPSS is actively working on a plan to continue offering it for the 2025-2026 school year.
As we finalize staffing across the district for the upcoming school year, an official announcement outlining the next steps for the program will be made once the process is complete—no later than early May.”
