Dear Port Barre Elementary Families,
We are excited to roll out our new, streamlined communication tool that will allow you to message directly with your child’s teachers. This new feature, called Rooms, is available right inside our district’s app, the SLP App.
This will be our primary tool for parent-teacher communication this year, replacing previous methods. To make sure you’re ready, please follow the steps below.
How to Get Connected:
Download the App: Your single point for communication is the SLP App. If you haven't already, please download it from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store by searching for "St. Landry Parish Schools" or using the download links provided below:
iPhone- https://apps.apple.com/us/app/st-landry-parish-school-board/id1531513981
Android-https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apptegy.stlandry&pli=1
Sign Up (Only If You Haven't Already):
Open the SLP App and tap on the Rooms icon.
Follow the prompts to create your account and connect with your student(s).
Important: If you already signed up at the end of last school year or over the summer, you do not need to do it again. You are all set!
Troubleshooting & Support:
"I'm signed in, but I don't see my student."
If your student is not connected to your account after you sign in, please use the messaging feature within Rooms to let us know, and we will resolve it.
"I'm having trouble creating my account or signing in."
If you are experiencing technical difficulty with the sign-up process itself, please contact our dedicated support by emailing tfontenot3@slpsb.org.
Please note that student schedules will not be available in the app until after your child’s school has released rosters at open house or orientation/registration.
We are confident that Rooms will make staying connected simpler and more effective than ever. We look forward to a great year of partnership with you!

Help your child divide and conquer compound words
Recognizing different types of words helps children learn to read and spell them. To help your child learn about compound words (words made by linking two words together, such as "schoolwork") look through reading material for 10 of them. Together, break down each word into its two parts. Then, discuss the meanings of the parts. How do they relate to the meaning of the compound word?

Add math skills to your grocery shopping list
On your next trip to the grocery store, help your child pick up some math skills while you pick up food. For example, you can challenge your elementary schooler to estimate your total grocery bill. In the checkout line, call out the price of each item as it is scanned. Have your child round it up or down to the nearest dollar, then add it mentally to a running total. How close can your child come to the actual bill?
