Parkview Baptist High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Parkview Baptist School (PBS) is a private, coeducational Christian school located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Founded by members of Parkview Baptist Church, Parkview Baptist School was incorporated in 1981 under the provisions of Louisiana's nonprofit corporation law. Parkview Baptist School is located adjacent to Parkview Baptist Church at the intersection of Airline and Jefferson Highways in southeastern Baton Rouge. The school mascot is the Eagle, and the school colors are red, white, and blue.

Parkview Baptist School is divided into three administrative units: Parkview Baptist Elementary School (K-5), Parkview Baptist Middle School (6-8), and Parkview Baptist High School (9-12). Appointed in 2005, superintendent Kenneth Payne oversees all three schools with the help of the Elementary School (Principal Debra Parker), Middle School (Principal H. N. Denham), and High School (Principal D. Kenneth Worsham) administrations. Parkview Baptist School is also governed by a School Board that consists of appointed members hailing from the school, church, and community as a whole.

Parkview Baptist School is fully certified by the Louisiana State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education as an approved K-12 education program. Additionally, PBS is fully accredited with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and has been approved to receive foreign students by the United States Immigration and Naturalization Services.
