Public school students have excellent learning opportunities in grades K-12. Another option is a K-8 private parochial school. In addition, the area has close access to two major universities and vocational skill training at a local technical institute.

 

The West Baton Rouge Parish School System provides excellent learning opportunities for almost 4,000 students. The community-based schools are staffed with dedicated professionals who provide a quality education for every child. Parish schools consistently score higher than the state average and plans are being implemented at each school to ensure continued improvement.

The Chamber of Commerce's Education Division provides a business perspective to educators and students through activities that focus on employment demands of business. The West Baton Rouge Chamber of Commerce's Education Division initiated The Academic Excellence Fund which subsequently raised over $500,000 to support additional educational programs benefiting WBR Parish Students and Teachers.

Two major universities are a short commute away. Louisiana State University, in East Baton Rouge, is the state flagship institution, currently enrolling over 30,000 students. Southern University is located in Baton Rouge is just a short drive across the Mississippi River. These well respected institutions provide the educational and research support of industries along the West Baton Rouge corridor.
