[edit] School uniforms
Students are required to wear school uniforms [2]. These uniforms consist of a polo shirt embossed with the school logo for all students, skorts or skirts of an appropriate length in the school plaid, and shorts or pants of any type (again in the appropriate length). Skirts do not necessarily need to be of the school plaid.
[edit] Athletics
The mascot of the school is the Cubs, in reference to the school's association with the LSU Tigers. The Cubs compete in LHSAA Class 2A and field many successful teams in sports such as Soccer, Football, Basketball, Baseball, Girls' Volleyball, Swimming, Track and Field, Cross Country, and Golf.
