About Us
Twin Oaks Elementary is a neighborhood school founded in 1972, located within the East Baton Rouge Parish School District. As a dynamic school dedicated to academic excellence, we provide a comprehensive education that fosters the growth of the whole child.
Twin Oaks Elementary serves students from Pre-K to 5th grade. Our diverse and inclusive learning environment offers English language learning support, STEM and graphic arts programs, and a variety of after-school activities including soccer, basketball, and track. Additionally, our traveling student choir, open to grades 4-5, gives students the opportunity to showcase their talents. We emphasize the importance of service and leadership through programs like The Gentlemen of Character and Girls with PEARLS, which recognize select 5th-grade students who take part in campus initiatives and model positive behavior.
Twin Oaks Elementary actively encourages community partnerships and focuses on project-based learning for all grade levels. Our school-wide PBIS program highlights character education, promoting positive behavior and a strong sense of community.
