EDUCATION

Scott and our surrounding areas have several opportunities to achieve many levels and forms of education. We are fortunate enough to have Five Public schools, Two Private / Religious schools, and one High School within the city/ corporate limits of Scott.

Our School System are a part of the Lafayette Parish over the last few years we have become an area where we have the school of choice as part of our educational system.

SCHOOLS OF CHOICE
In an attempt to improve the racial diversity of its schools, and give students a more exciting a fulfilling educational experience, the Lafayette Parish School System offers Schools of Choice at the Elementary, Middle and High School levels.

These schools offer specialized programs or themes which give students the core curriculum required by state guidelines in the context of a subject in which the student has an interest.

All students in the parish are eligible to apply for admission to any School of Choice. Special education students also can apply, but must have their application approved by their IEP committee in order to be eligible for the lottery.
