March 27 School Board Meeting 6:30 pm in Board Room

The TEA program provides services for teen parents and low-income families. Our objective with teen parents is to provide the necessary services to assure they remain in school and graduate. We also provide services for low income families to assist them in returning to the workforce through educational and training opportunities.

Lavaca Public Schools participate in the Arkansas Public School Choice Act 560 of 2015. We are now accepting applications for students who desire to participate in the School Choice Program.

Any parent residing outside the Lavaca School District, who wishes to send their child to Lavaca Schools, beginning with the 2023-2024 School Year, may obtain an application from the Central Administration Office located at 203 Fir Street, Lavaca, AR.
