Our Goal: Safe and
Drug Free Schools and
Communities
The
Tangipahoa Parish School
System recognizes that
students and employees
need to have a safe and
drug free environment in
which to learn and
work. This need has
been encouraged and
supported in recent
years with the passage
of both federal and
state legislation that
provides for severe
consequences to students
and adults who choose to
bring weapons, including
but not limited to
knives and guns, and
controlled substances to
any school campus,
school bus or site of a
school sponsored event.
Tangipahoa Parish School
Board is committed to
enforcing statutes that
have been established to
help schools accomplish
the goal of making all
schools free of drugs,
violence, and the
unauthorized presence of
firearms and alcohol.
In addition, the school
system is committed to
assisting our students
in becoming responsible
users of the many
technology opportunities
available to them both
on and off campus. If
our goal is to become a
reality, it is essential
that students accept
personal responsibility
for their behavior and
parents must become
actively involved in the
education of their
children. The school
system in cooperation
with our many community
partners has implemented
numerous prevention and
intervention programs to
assist students in
acquiring the knowledge,
refusal skills and
positive attitudes
needed to become
successful lifelong
learners. We urge you
to explore the links on
this site to learn more
about what we are doing
daily to keep our
schools and communities
safe. |
