What a night to remember for our Mighty Pirates! ⚓️ Our boys took the field for the very first time on our brand-new turf and came out with a big jamboree win over Rayne, 23-14!
The energy in the stadium was electric from start to finish. Our student section was giving full Tiger Stadium vibes, loud, proud, and absolutely unstoppable!!!
A huge thank you to Dr. Dan Dartez and Superintendent Tommy Byler for making this incredible field a reality. Generations of Pirate fans will celebrate here, and tonight was just the beginning of something special.
Pirate Nation showed up, and our Pirates showed out. The future is bright on this field! 🏴☠️
A big congratulations to our newly elected student council and class officers! With leadership like this, we are surely going to have an unstoppable school year!

What a night at Kaplan High School!
Our gym was packed with parents and students for Open House and the community pep rally.
The Mighty Pirates brought the energy, and under the leadership of our new head coach, John Thompson, the spirit was unstoppable!
Parents had the chance to meet our teachers, hear about our school goals, and learn more about what it means to be UNSTOPPABLE this year. The students were lit up with excitement, and the pride in Pirate Nation was felt everywhere.
It was truly a night to remember, and now the countdown is on. Friday Night Lights are just a couple of days away, and we can all feel the momentum of an unstoppable year ahead! 🏴

👉 Tickets are available now through KHS students, and the public can also order online here:

Join us on November 1st for food, fun, and Pirate pride.
Let’s rock this JAMMIN’ JAMBALAYA fundraiser, because like Bob Marley said, 🎶 “We’re jammin’, to think that jammin’ was a thing of the past, we’re jammin’, and we’re jammin’ to make it last!” 🎶

We are so proud to celebrate Kaplan High School senior Lily Perrin for being named the 2025 Junior Cattleman of the Year by the Louisiana Cattle Festival!
Lily’s passion for agriculture runs generations deep. As a sixth-generation cattle rancher, she raises and shows registered Herefords and Hereford-cross beef cattle, always striving for quality genetics that produce top-quality beef. Her leadership is just as strong. She serves as Class of 2026 President, President of the KHS FFA Chapter, Senior Captain of the Gold Dance Team, and has been a driving force in 4-H, Beta Club, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Key Club, and more.
Her achievements have taken her from local barns to national competitions, and she continues to represent Kaplan and Vermilion Parish with pride, work ethic, and heart. This honor is even more special as she shares the Cattle Festival spotlight with her grandfather, Randall Perrin, this year’s King.
Congratulations, Lily, on this incredible recognition. You are proof that Pirates are truly UNSTOPPABLE. 🏴☠️
