Survey for Catahoula Zoned Parents

The St. Martin Parish School Board is considering the development of a Cajun, Creole, and Zydeco Music Heritage Academy to open next school year, 2016-2017.

The Academy will be located at  Catahoula Elementary, and will offer vocal, instrumental, and dance instruction from a renowned local artist along with enrichment in Cajun, Creole, and Zydeco history and other cultural interests from guest instructors.

In the first year, the program will enroll students in grades K-4 from the St. Martinville, Breaux Bridge, Parks, Cecilia and Catahoula attendance zones.  The program will expand one (1) grade each year until all students K-8 are involved.
