Registered Nonpublic Schools

Nonpublic (Private) Schools not seeking State approval must register with the State each year in order to be in compliance with Louisiana’s compulsory attendance law (R.S. 17:232 (C) and (D)). Below are the information and guidelines for registering.

Submit an official, signed letter registering the school year, name of your school, contact information, and total number of students enrolled. You must notify the Department of Education by the thirtieth day after the school session begins. Send only one copy of the letter, and keep a copy for your records. Your registration will be maintained electronically at the Louisiana Department of Education.
