Mission Statement
Laurel Oaks Charter School educates all Kindergarten through Grade 8 students for admission to selective college preparatory high schools and four-year colleges and universities.
Description
No matter a student’s zip code, race, or socio economic status, Laurel Oaks’ goal is to provide each student with a high quality, academically challenging education provided within a structured and supportive K-8 school. We seek to change the educational landscape of Baton Rouge through:
- Academically challenging and rigorous K-8 education.
We prepare students to be above grade level, not on grade level.
- Structured and supportive school culture.
We hold ourselves to high academic and behavioral expectations.
- College character in kindergarten.
We build character to make students college ready, even in kindergarten.
- Building team leadership.
We hire and train a great team of teachers using research-based and practice-proven methods.
- Empower parents and the community.
We communicate with parents proactively, frequently, and always supporting students’ highest potential.
