Make A Difference Monday! We value the commitment, dedication, and hard work of these Mansfield educators! #DeSotoServes #TheDeSotoDifference.




Desoto Parish Schools has enabled “GoGuardian Parent”, a mobile app designed to provide parents/guardians insight and control over their student's online activity when they are using school-managed devices and accounts.
We use this platform daily to monitor student content and want to provide you with the same resource in order to for you to monitor what your students have used their Chromebooks for and to give you the ability to lock down their computers after school hours.
Please click the link below for more information and directions to install the app.

Have a great weekend!


The DeSoto Parish Schools family is very saddened by the loss of Stanley High School student Aubrey Louise Hubier. Aubrey was in her senior year at Stanley High School and was sincerely loved by her peers and teachers. She loved playing softball for the Stanley High School softball team and was a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Our hearts and prayers are with the families and friends of those impacted by this tragedy. We stand by the Hubier family and the Stanley community as we try to make sense of this loss. As adults, we are well aware of the substantial emotional impact that follows the death of a loved one or friend. We are working together with our Crisis Response Team to offer support to the students and staff at Stanley High School. Please feel free to contact us if you need additional assistance. Counselors and other support staff will be available at the campus Monday (September 25) and will continue to be available to students, teachers, and families throughout the week as needed. For more information on funeral services scheduled for Monday, September 25, please visit
