St. Elizabeth School is an accredited, co-educational elementary school for grades pre-kindergarten through grade eight in the Diocese of Baton Rouge. Our curriculum stresses academic achievement within a Catholic, Christian community, based on Jesus’ gospel message of unconditional love. United through liturgy and prayer, students can further come to an understanding of their Catholic faith and the active presence of God in all our lives. At St. Elizabeth, we are attempting to "teach as Jesus did."

To Enroll in Pre-K

A child must be three (3) years old on or before September 30th to be eligible for Pre-Kindergarten 3, and four (4) years old on or before September 30th to be eligible for Pre-Kindergarten 4. Every child in the 3 year old class must be fully potty-trained and out of diapers and pull-ups. Your child must be able to communicate with an adult that he or she has to go to the restroom.

●      An occasional “accident” is understandable; however, if your child repeatedly has accidents, you will be called to come to school to change him/her.

●      If within the first three weeks of school your child does not seem to be potty trained, we will ask that you remove your child from the program.

Registration in Pre-K 3 does not guarantee admission into Pre-K 4. Registration in Pre-K 3 and Pre-K 4 does not guarantee admission into Kindergarten.
