At NOLA-PS we are sincerely committed to transparency, high-quality schools, and actively engaging our community in order to make the best decisions for our children.

On Tuesday, November 19, 2019, the Orleans Parish School Board will consider the impact of increased property assessments in the city and decide whether to roll millages forward to meet financial needs. There will be a public hearing at 3:00pm and a special board meeting that same day at 5:30pm. The Millage FAQ flyer explains how public schools in Orleans parish are funded and how a millage roll forward will further impact of schools.

Here are some helpful tips from NOLA Public Schools' Office of Student Support & Attendance on how you can take part in making sure our students are in school everyday as part of the 2019-2020 academic year's "Strive for Less than 5" absences and tardies attendance awareness campaign.

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 5:30 pm (CST). Once our television broadcast signal has been restored, rebroadcasts of the meeting will be viewable online and on OPSB TV, Cox 8 television.
