Here is our challenge:
Our Approach
Academic materials and tools, uniforms, and arts and athletic equipment can cost nearly $100,000 per school.
Many of our St Landry Parish high schools are still using uniforms, equipment, and training materials that are decades old or well beyond their lifespan.
Some schools, especially our elementary and middle schools, currently have no uniforms, equipment, and training material at all.
Without uniforms, equipment, and training materials, our students cannot effectively learn, compete, and thrive, and miss the chance to represent their schools with the pride and professionalism they deserve. New uniforms, equipment and training materials are more than just fabric and tools, it is a symbol of our students belonging to a school that embodies pride, unity, and school spirit.
When you financially support STEAM Ahead St Landry, you help our students stand taller, shine brighter, and carry a legacy of excellence into the future with pride.
Support S.T.E.A.M. Ahead St Landry
S.T.E.A.M. Ahead St Landry is a program to provide help and material support for every St Landry Parish student involved in school activities in the ares of Science, Talent, Exploration, Arts, and Motion. We are raising funds for every SLP student to march with pride, compete with intensity and develop their talent to engage, thrive and become productive in a 21st century world.
St Landry Parish schools have built a legacy of excellence with committed educators, staff, and administrators working daily with our children with very little or outdated equipment. Academic and extracurricular programs and activities are so much more than entertainment and social projects. For thousands of students in St Landry Parish, science, arts, music, athletic, and technology programs serve as an extension of our children’s education helping them to develop discipline, leadership, teamwork, and creativity.
Participating in school activities opens doors to unforgettable experiences such as marching in Mardi Gras parades, performing at festivals and competitions, and competing on a local, regional, national, and international level. These moments build pride, unity, and confidence that last a lifetime and helps our students prepare for college, careers in the trades, and future careers not yet realized by teaching responsibility, time management, and collaboration.
