Schools of Choice
Lafayette Parish School System (LPSS) added a "School of Choice"[4] called the Early College Academy[5] in 2008, which gives high school students (grades 9–12) a chance to graduate with a high school diploma as well as a two-year associate degree in the field of their choice. Students take all courses on the campus of South Louisiana Community College, and most school days begin at 8:30 and end around 4 p.m. It is the only school of its kind in the state of Louisiana.
