What a GAME, Pirates! Congratulations.

THIS is what making connections at Kaplan High School is all about! 🖤💛
Sometimes, the most LEGENDARY lessons have nothing to do with a textbook!
Today, I had the opportunity to witness something truly special in Ms. Casey Broussard’s Friday CONNECT Enrichment, and I absolutely LOVED what I saw!
Students were challenged to communicate without saying a SINGLE word! One student used their finger to draw a picture on their partner’s back while their partner attempted to recreate that same picture on paper, using only what they could feel.
The catch? NO TALKING ALLOWED! 🤫
For an entire minute and a half, you could have heard a pin drop in that classroom! But the second students turned around to compare their masterpieces, the room ERUPTED with laughter! 😂
And THAT was the beauty of this lesson!
What looked like a simple, fun activity was actually teaching students some incredibly important life skills: concentration, patience, nonverbal communication, trust, and teamwork.
But what impressed me most wasn't just the activity. It was watching students genuinely ENJOY being at school, interacting with one another, laughing together, and building relationships.
We talk a lot about the importance of CONNECTION at Kaplan High School, and today I watched it happen right before my eyes.
Not every meaningful lesson is measured by a test score. Some of the most important things we teach our students are how to communicate, how to work together, and how to connect with the people around them.
A HUGE shoutout to Ms. Casey Broussard for being intentional about creating these moments for our students. This is the kind of school culture we want to continue building, one where students feel connected, valued, and excited to walk through our doors!
THIS is how LEGENDARY schools are built, one connection at a time! 🖤💛





A LEGENDARY Congratulations to Our Pirate Queen!
Kaplan High School is proud to congratulate Marlee Trahan, who was crowned the 2027 Vermilion Parish Cattlemen/Cattlewomen Queen, and Riley Duhon, who earned the title of 1st Runner-Up!
These outstanding young ladies represented themselves and our school with pride while demonstrating their dedication to supporting and advocating for the beef industry!
We wish Marlee the very best as she prepares to represent Vermilion Parish at the Louisiana Cattlemen’s Association Queen’s Contest in January 2027!
We would also like to recognize and thank Lily Perrin, the outgoing queen, for her dedication and service throughout her reign and for having the honor of crowning Marlee.
Congratulations to all of these remarkable young ladies! You continue to make Pirateland proud!

HAPPY NATIONAL BOSS’S DAY, COACH SHAY!
Some people lead because it is their job. Others lead because they genuinely care about the people they serve. Coach Shay is the kind of leader who gives his heart and soul to his school, his students, and his community.
His dedication is unrelenting. His commitment to our students never wavers. Whether he is celebrating their accomplishments, guiding them through difficult moments, or working tirelessly behind the scenes to make Kaplan High School a better place, Coach Shay gives everything he has to the people who depend on him.
But his impact reaches far beyond the walls of Kaplan High School. Coach Shay is truly a heartbeat of this community. He understands that being a principal is about more than running a school. It is about building relationships, earning trust, protecting traditions, and making sure every student knows they matter.
This year, our theme is LEGENDARY, and we are reminded that legends are not made simply by the titles they hold. They are made through years of dedication, countless sacrifices, and the lives they influence along the way.
Coach Shay, your legacy is being written every single day in the lives of the students, teachers, families, and community members who are better because of your leadership.
Today, we celebrate YOU. Thank you for your unwavering commitment, your tremendous heart, and the pride you bring to Kaplan High School.
You don't just lead a LEGENDARY school. You are helping create the legends who will one day lead our community.
Happy Boss's Day, Coach Shay! We are incredibly fortunate to have you at the helm of our Pirate Ship! 🏴☠️

🎶💃 FUNKY FUSION FUN! 🏴☠️🖤💛
Our Kaplan High School 7th Hour athletes were rewarded for all their hard work with a little Funky Fusion today! 🎉
These athletes have been putting in the work, and today was all about having fun, making memories, and enjoying a well-deserved break from their normal PE routine!
Hard work deserves a little FUN! 💪🔥




LEGENDARY LEARNING IN WESTERN CIV!
Who says learning about the Bronze Age can't be creative?
Coach Brandon Johnson challenged his Western Civilization students to think critically, conduct their own research, and make connections between seven readings about the Bronze Age using an activity called Hexagonal Thinking!
But his 4th hour class decided to take things a step further!
When Coach Brandon introduced the activity, student Owen Marceaux quickly asked, "So Coach, this is like honeycomb thinking?" That simple observation led to an even better question: "Can we actually make a honeycomb?"
And that's exactly what they did!
What we LOVE about this lesson is that students weren't simply memorizing historical facts. They were researching, making connections, collaborating, and finding creative ways to demonstrate their understanding!
A huge shoutout to Coach Johnson for encouraging students to think outside the box and to his 4th-hour students for taking ownership of their learning!
THIS is what happens when creativity and critical thinking come together in a classroom!

We are so proud of these five students for stepping up, representing KHS, and continuing to grow as leaders! We can’t wait to see them put what they’ve learned into action and bring some exciting ideas back to Pirate Nation!

We are in the final 12 days of JamBOOlaya ticket sales, and we are sitting at only 300 plates sold.
Our goal was to match last year's 900:(
We know people usually wait until the last minute to order food for October 31st, and we are now in crunch time.
Y'all came through in a BIG way for us last year, and we are hoping y'all can continue that community magic and help us again. Remember, ALL proceeds go to student incentives and teacher incentives.
Also, student council will be there to sell amazing Halloween treats for all the trick-or-treaters who are sure to be knocking at your door that evening. This is a WIN-WIN situation: Amazing lunch. Amazing treats...ALL IN ONE STOP.
