Caddo Parish Public Schools -

We celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week to show how much we care and how much we respect our teachers. It’s a perfect time to show the educator in your child’s life how much you have appreciated their support over the past school year.

Caddo Schools is hosting a voter registration week in partnership with civic organizations that aim to register eligible high school students to vote. This event will serve as the kickoff and celebration to have more students registered to vote and participating in civic duties.

Join us at the Shreveport Convention Center for ArtBreak 2022 as we celebrate Caddo Parish Students’ Artistic Success! ArtBreak is a free, hands-on family event produced by the Shreveport Regional Arts Council, and Caddo Parish Public Schools. The ArtBreak Festival provides the entire region the opportunity to witness first-hand the results of quality Fine Arts instruction and Arts in Education programming. Through the combined efforts of school administrators, teachers, artists, our generous sponsors, and hundreds of community volunteers, we continue to grow and provide educational and creative opportunities at ArtBreak.

Theatre of the Performing Arts of Shreveport is proud to announce its 19th annual Yazzy Youth Celebrating Jazz Concert, our first live performance in 2 years! This performance features 25 Caddo students representing 9 schools. This performance will pay tribute to several historically black colleges and universities across the country. With their rich culture and heritage, HBCUs not only provide academic excellence, but have helped shape the lives of some of our greatest African American entertainers. Many actors, singers, producers, authors, and politicians attended an HBCU, so this production celebrates the work and life of a few alumni such as Phylicia Rashad, Samuel L Jackson, Anika Rose, Oprah Winfrey, and Erykah Badu just to name a few. Join us Friday, May 20, 7:00 pm, at Green Oaks Performing Arts Academy as our Yazzy students present “Keeping the Legacy Alive: HBCUs Matter”. Adult tickets are $10.00. Children/Youth (w/ID) tickets $5.00. Tickets can be purchased at the door on May 20th. Cash, checks, and cash app transactions accepted. Extra $2 fee for cash app transactions. For more information, contact 318-525-0740 or 318-621-8914.
