Thank you, students, for opening your hearts and celebrating unstoppable excellence. That's the "Pirate-Way!"
We LOVE you!


✨💛 TOMORROW is the Dream Dress Drive… and a chance to change a life. 💛✨
Somewhere in our community, there’s a young girl quietly wondering if she’ll get to go to prom… not because she doesn’t want to — but because she doesn’t have a dress.
Tomorrow, YOU can be the reason she walks into that dance feeling confident, beautiful, and seen. 👗✨
The Dream Dress Drive is about more than fabric and sequins.
It’s about dignity.
It’s about belonging.
It’s about giving a student the chance to shine without worrying about the cost.
If you have:
• Gently loved formal dresses
• Shoes
• Accessories
• Clutches or jewelry
Bring them. Donate them. Pass them on. 💕
That dress hanging in your closet could become someone’s most unforgettable memory.
Let’s show our community what Pirate hearts are made of — generosity, compassion, and love. ⚓💛
Because every girl deserves her dream dress. ✨👑

At Kaplan High School, we continue that legacy by preparing our students to lead with character, integrity, and purpose.

Congratulations to Hunter Packard, who was elected Louisiana State Beta President at the annual State Beta Convention, and what unfolded on that stage is something our Pirate family will never forget.
With his campaign theme, “Roll with Hunter, Feel the Thunder,” Hunter didn’t just present; he commanded the arena. From the moment his skit began to the final words of his speech, the energy inside the building surged. The crowd rose with him. The noise was deafening. Tiger Stadium was a few miles away, but Hunter gave them a run for their money with his energy and passion.
In a venue packed with the best student leaders from across Louisiana, Hunter Packard rose above them all. His election to State Beta President is not just a personal achievement; it is a defining moment for Kaplan High School.
Hunter, you carried the Pirate name with strength, pride, and thunder. We could not be prouder of you and the legacy you continue to build.
Hunter is truly UNSTOPPABLE. 🏴☠️

This area must remain clear to ensure the safe arrival of our bus riders and the safe entry of students walking into the building. When vehicles use this space for drop off, it creates serious safety concerns and disrupts our established procedures designed to protect every student.
All student drop offs must take place in the designated drop off areas only. Your cooperation is essential in helping us maintain a safe and orderly campus environment.
Thank you for your continued support in keeping our students safe. 🏴☠️
