Superintendent Warren Drake was just on WBRZ, where he discussed school consolidation, schools meeting at different sites, and possibly working A & B schedules. He mentioned possibly sending EBR kids back to school on next Tuesday.

In other school flood news, St Amant High School definitely went under.
We just received an email asking if we would be able to return to work on Friday. It was probably a straw poll, but this suggests school is closed in EBR until then.

School closures are going to happen temporarily, but specifically which schools took water?

For example, I know Denham Springs High School took water to the roof. That means 1500+ students will be distributed to other schools in the area.

Schools in EBR and Surrounding Areas

Local teacher here considering school migration as a result of the floods. I thought a thread for listing schools that took water would be useful, not just for modeling but also for parents in the days/weeks to come.

EBR has roughly 90 schools in the district and Superintendent Warren Drake sent an email yesterday stating:

"We have been evaluating our schools and 33 sites were not accessible as of 6 pm today [Sunday]. 41 sites have no issues or minor issues. We are updating this every few hours and we know that several schools have been flooded."

This implies over half of the schools were impacted, although a distinction between schools/sites may exist.

Which schools do we know took water in Baton Rouge and surrounding cities?
