The town of Welsh prides itself on the quality of education provided to its youth. There are three schools in the district comprised of:

Welsh High School

We are proud of our schools that consistently perform at high levels. State awards of exemplary growth have been awarded to our schools each year - recognizing them as "Three Star" schools.

Welsh Elementary was one of three schools in Louisiana in 2001 to be recognized as a Title 1 "Distinguished School". Welsh Elementary is the only elementary school in the state nominated for that award twice.

Welsh High School ranks in the top 10 high schools in the state for high performance in Louisiana's High Stakes testing.

Our students are truly academically prepared for the world.
