East Feliciana Public Schools is monitoring the emerging tropical weather system with state and local officials and will continue to do so. We will notify our employees and families of any closures via the JCampus Student app, text messages, phone calls, efschools.net, our official district social media, and local media. Prior to any school closure with advanced notice, your child’s school will send home information and assignments for distance learning. Please download the JCampus Student app, as this is the best and quickest way to receive all updates!

Every day, our employees work with intention to achieve the vision of our community for our public schools. At our Back to School Convocation last week, we recognized our Teachers of the Year who lead the way in identifying and meeting the comprehensive needs of each student and embracing innovation in meeting those needs.
We believe that providing students with fresh, nutritious options is key to supporting their health and academic performance. We're pleased to share that we’ve introduced meal choices at the high school level and a fresh fruit choice for students at all of our schools. These efforts are part of our commitment to enhancing the dining experience for all students! This is new for us, so we ask for your grace as we transition to these fresh meal options for students.
