Hahnville High School

Hahnville High School is a public high school located in Boutte, Louisiana, United States. It is part of the St. Charles Parish Public School System, serving grades 9 through 12. J.B. Martin and R.K. Smith Middle Schools are the feeder schools for Hahnville High School.

Students living on the west bank of the Mississippi River in St. Charles Parish are assigned to the school. Residents of Ama, Bayou Gauche, Boutte, Des Allemands (area of town located in St. Charles Parish), Hahnville, Killona, Luling, and Paradis are assigned to the school.

History

Founded in 1924 in the parish seat of Hahnville, Louisiana, the school moved to its present location at Boutte, Louisiana in 1976. Hahnville High School has maintained its accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools every year since 1948.

In 1969, then all-black G. W. Carver High School in Hahnville was closed and its students moved to Hahnville High.

Beginning in 2005, students in grades 11 and 12 from both Hahnville and Destrehan have had the option to attend the school district's Satellite Center for half of the school day. The goal is for students to concentrate on career paths that are projected to expand the most over the next decade. Courses at the Satellite Center include: Advanced Television Broadcasting, Digital Media, Engineering Design, Interactive Media, Process Technology (PTEC), Health Care Exploration, Patient Care, Hotel-Restaurant and Tourism (HRT) Administration, Culinary Arts, and Students Teaching And Reaching (STAR). As of the 2018-2019 school year, the Satellite Center added courses in Instrumentation and Health Clinical. Thus, the courses of Digital Media, Interactive Media, and Advanced Television Broadcasting were moved into the academic wing of the school district's brand-new Rodney Lafon Performing Arts Center less than a block away from the Satellite Center. Despite the move, these three courses are still considered a part of the Satellite Center.

Since moving to its new campus, Hahnville High has grown to nine buildings.
