As a result of the statewide mask mandate being lifted by Governor Edwards, DeSoto Parish Schools will return to our original operational guidelines which make the wearing of face coverings optional for all students and staff while indoors. This change will take effect beginning Wednesday, October 27, 2021. The district will continue to follow all quarantine protocols as established by the Louisiana Department of Health.
It was a great day in DeSoto! The DeSoto Parish Special Olympics was another huge success. We are so thankful to our students, parents, faculty & staff. You are all #TheDeSotoDifference!
Just a reminder, we will be closed Monday, September 6 in observance of Labor Day. Enjoy your long weekend! #DeSotoCares
