    On Thursday, May 9, 2013 35 students from the KHMS jazz band, dance ensemble, and the 2013 graduating class attended lunch at the House of Blues in New Orleans. After lunch students experienced the magnificent broadway musical, Wicked perfromed at the Mahalia Jackson Theater for the performing Arts. Upon leaving the theater students were able to enjoy the "Congo Square music in the park series" held in Armstrong Park. It was a truly fabulous day!

Common Core
  

With approximately  46 states  adopting the Common Core State Standards, the Louisiana Department of Education and the Tangipahoa Parish School System has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to transform education in our  state and district and improve our student’s opportunities to compete globally. Currently, for too many students drop out or graduate from high school without the knowledge and skills required for success, closing doors and limiting their post-high school options. The Tangipahoa Parish School System is committed to increasing the number of students who earn high school diplomas and enroll in college or have a career after graduation. Implementing the Common Core State Standards is a critical step toward ensuring that all students in the Tangipahoa Parish School System receive the education they need to become College or Career Ready.
