The Golden Band from Pirateland just did it AGAIN.
A HUGE congratulations to the Kaplan High School Concert Band for earning a 1 on stage and a 1 in sightreading, bringing home a Sweepstakes Award at District Assessment.
That level of performance does not happen by chance. It comes from discipline, preparation, and a commitment to excellence every single day. These students walked in prepared, performed with confidence, and delivered when it mattered most.
This is what UNSTOPPABLE looks like.
We are proud of every student and director who made this moment happen. You represented Kaplan High School the right way, and you set the standard for what it means to be the Golden Band from Pirateland.

Kaplan High School is showing OUT at the Vermilion Parish Student Arts Expo, and we could not be more proud! 🎭🎶🎨
Our Pirates are taking the stage in multiple performances, showcasing their incredible talent, hard work, and passion for the arts. From music to visual art to live performances, they are representing KHS in a BIG way and proving that our students are truly Unstoppable.
This is what it’s all about, giving students the opportunity to shine, express themselves, and share their gifts with the community. We are so proud of each and every student who stepped onto a stage and gave it their all.
Keep shining, Pirates. You are making KHS proud! 💛🖤
Kaplan High School is showing Vermilion Parish exactly what UNSTOPPABLE looks like.
Last night, our track team didn’t just compete… they rewrote the record books.
School Record Breakers
4x800 Relay Team
Lexi Greene, Riley Hebert, Izzy Hargrave, Liberty Greene
⏱ 9:57.64
And that wasn’t all…
We also broke the school record in the 4x400!
This is what happens when preparation meets pride, when discipline meets determination, and when a team decides that average is not enough.
Our athletes are raising the standard and proving that at Kaplan High, we don’t chase excellence… we set it.
Keep pushing. Keep breaking barriers. Keep being UNSTOPPABLE.

Today, our Pirate family took a moment to recharge together as we celebrated Power Up Week with a staff luncheon that did not disappoint!
From a fully loaded baked potato soup to a fresh house salad and warm breadsticks, everything was set up to give our staff the fuel they need as we push forward. But more than the food, it was the energy in the room, the laughter, and the smiles that truly stood out.
This is a critical stretch as we move closer to Spring Break and continue preparing our students for LEAP testing. Moments like this remind us that when we take care of each other, we show up even stronger for our kids.
We’re locked in, we’re focused, and we’re ready to finish strong.

FOOD DRIVE! Please share.
Please share:
Today at Kaplan High School, our students experienced the powerful conclusion to last year’s mock crash event as the Sudden Impact Mock Trial took place on our campus.
Students had the opportunity to witness the courtroom side of the story, seeing how one single decision can carry life-altering consequences. The trial served as a continuation of the mock crash that took place at the stadium last year, bringing the reality of those choices into a courtroom setting where students could see how the legal process unfolds.
It was a truly eye-opening experience for our students and a powerful reminder of the responsibility that comes with every decision behind the wheel.
A sincere thank you to Sudden Impact for partnering with Kaplan High School and for continuing to provide experiences that educate, challenge, and protect our students. Together, we are helping our Pirates make smart choices and look out for one another.
