BATON ROUGE, LA., June 13, 2017 – Laurel Oaks Charter School celebrates the success of its inaugural school year with 86% of students on and above grade level and 100% growth for all students. “We hit a major milestone and demonstrated to the community what is possible when you build a strong team of educators, supported with constant professional development from administration, and a school culture that treats each student and family like our own,” said Mrs. Linda Hubbard, Office Coordinator at Laurel Oaks Charter School. “We are living up to the promise we gave our families at the beginning of the year; to ensure their child is able to perform on and above grade level to get them to the top high schools in Baton Rouge, starting in kindergarten.”

“Laurel Oaks Charter School faced several challenges in its first year,” stated Mr. Shamsid-Deen, Head of School. “Our scheduled first school day was the day after the flood, we faced under enrollment, and started our school with the least fundraised dollars than any other startup school.” Despite these many setbacks Laurel Oaks, decided that in its first year, they had to ensure high expectations in behavior and academics. “Everyone on our Team, knew no matter what faced us as a Laurel Oaks Family, we would do right by our students. We made every instructional minute count, we worked hard, communicated and invested in our students and families to make our first year strong. We are looking forward to pushing the bar even higher this year and getting every scholar (student) on grade level.”

As stated on the school’s website, “Laurel Oaks Charter School is designed to ensure starting in kindergarten, we prepare your child to be admitted and succeed in the top high schools in Baton Rouge. We provide each student an academically challenging and supportive education that is admissions test and tuition-free.”
