the town of kaplan is a sh@t hole, the stuff in the town isnt bad(food, grocery stores, gas stations, etc) but I wouldnt want to live "in" Kaplan. That being said I live 7 minutes from Kaplan and 10 minutes from Abbeville. Crowley can be nice as well as new iberia. both have their bad areas like any city

I know a few people that live just north of Kaplan. Pretty country there and good people for the most part. And not far from anything.

Come on down to Judice Hustler. We're always looking for good people. Good luck finding cheap land. About 6 people own most of it, and they sure ain't giving it away! They have 20 something acres behind my house for sale, and they're only asking $570,000.

Live in Youngsville and really like it, close to everything as the crow flies but not as the car drives - traffic is purty bad There is always always something going on in the area and its mainly free, and nearby they have a festival for everything you can think of - rice, crawfish, boudin, cracklin, frogs, rabbits A couple threads out there on where to go watching for women as well (no shortage of them)


Question to everyone else though - we live in Youngsville and are sending our child to private because we are hearing the schools are not that great, can someone fill me in on this? Green T Lyndon?

Don't believe that. GTL is an excellent schools, we go and have lunch with the kids and attend various school functions and it is unreal how well behaved all the children are. There is a heck of a lot more order than the private schools I went to. The teachers are very involved and attentive.

I have one in Kindergarten and one in 3rd grade (been there since Kindergarten). Their homework is constant and challenging, and the interaction from the teachers is on point - they TEACh, and both my children learn. It's very practical and hands on, not the memorization game that the private schools I attended played (I think the curriculum was).

I love where I live in Broussard, but don't like neighbors and not being able to shoot my guns in my underwear. We have been talking about moving to the country on some acreage for a few years now, and the only thing keeping us here is the education our kids are getting. We text back and forth with the teachers, it's personal.

The 5 year old didn't go to pre K, and is reading and righting already and he's halfway through the year. The homework he brings home forces him to think and put his hands on things, then bring them to school to put it into practice.

I.e Draw a balance, and on one side draw something that you like to play with, then on the other side of the balance draw the number of pennies that you think weigh the same as the object you chose. Bring the object to school tomorrow and we will compare it with the amount of pennies you chose. That was one item on his homework last night.

Or, if you have a cone standing up, draw the shape of the base... In kindergarten. Now, I know this curriculum is across the board, but the interaction with the teachers is what strikes me.

Don't be scared of the public schools there, your tax dollars are actually working in this area.
