Good evening, parents.
As we wrap up our facilities assessment, now is your chance to provide feedback on our future facility growth in the district.
Please take a few moments to complete this survey if you were unable to attend one of our 3 listening sessions last week.
Thank you for your support as we continue to grow across the district!

The North DeSoto High School Griffins are officially Dome-bound as they board the bus and head to New Orleans to compete for a State Championship — and all of DeSoto Parish is behind them!
Griffin Nation sent them off with pride, energy, and all the support they deserve.
This team has put in the work, shown tremendous heart, and represented our parish with excellence every step of the way.
Let’s go, Griffins — finish the job and make history!
