Kindergarten registration for the 2026-2027 school year will take place at EPE on March 11th from 9am -12pm.
Children who are currently enrolled in and attending PreK at a Vermilion Parish Public School within their school zone do not need to register for Kindergarten. These students will still receive a packet to complete; however, on-site registration is not required.
If you have any questions regarding registration, please contact your zoned school. We will be happy to assist you!

Please plan accordingly for upcoming early dismissal dates.

We would like to take the time to spotlight our incredible school counselor, Miss Melinda! Her kindness and compassion for our students is a true inspiration! Thank you Miss Melinda!!

Monday, February 2nd, will be designated as a district-wide cold weather day.
Below are the guidelines:
1. Uniforms may be worn.
2. Appropriate bottoms such as jeans or sweatpants may be worn. NO LEGGINGS.
3. If you choose to wear shorts in the colder weather, they must be uniform shorts.
4. Coats, sweatshirts and jackets of any type may be worn. They may not have any inappropriate writing or graphics on them.We are more concerned with students keeping warm at bus stops, bus rides and in between classes that are located in portable buildings.
This is a district-wide policy that was implemented last year. A cold weather day called by the district is for all schools. Stay warm and we look forward to seeing our little wildcats tomorrow.

Snowball Names Fun! ❄️
Just in time for the chilly weather and this weekend’s freeze, our Pre-K friends brought the snow indoors with a Snowball Names literacy activity! ⛄📚
The children had a blast “tossing” snowballs while building important early literacy skills! Through this hands-on small-group activity, students are learning to:
✨ Recognize their names
✨ Identify letters in their names
✨ Match upper and lowercase letters
✨ Strengthen letter recognition
✨ Build confidence and engagement with print
Learning + movement + winter fun = a perfect combo! ❄️💙
We love making literacy exciting, no mittens required!
