Important Update

Hello, thank you for visiting our website. We are excited to announce that we are becoming the newly formed Southwest Comprehensive Center (Region 9). In addition to serving Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas, we will also be serving Oklahoma and New Mexico. The current content of this website reflects resources from the 2019-2024 Region 14 Comprehensive Center, managed by Westat under a grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The new 2024-2029 Region 14 Comprehensive Center serves the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE).

Stay tuned for a Southwestern makeover as we transition to the Southwest Comprehensive Center (Region 9).

Our States: Louisiana

The Louisiana Department of Education (LDOE) is built on the belief that Louisiana students are just as capable as any students in America and that those closest to children—parents and teachers—are best positioned to help students achieve those capabilities. The Southwest Comprehensive Center supports LDOE in achieving five educational priorities: 

  • Ensure every student is on track to a professional career, college degree, or service
  • Remove barriers and create equitable, inclusive learning experiences for all children
  • Provide the highest quality teaching and learning environment
  • Develop and retain a diverse, highly effective educator workforce
  • Cultivate high-impact systems, structures, and partnerships
