This group of new students includes 77 new sophomores, 50 new juniors, and five new seniors.

Executive Director Dr. Steve Horton formally welcomed students and their families to LSMSA.

“I hope that you’re becoming aware of what happens when you flex your talents and abilities, when you expand your capacity to study, work, and learn,” said Dr. Horton. “I hope that you already sense what it can mean for you to soar with the eagles.”

The keynote address, delivered by LSMSA Principal Lecturer of Biology Dr. Allison Landry, encouraged new students to remain resilient under pressure and to rely upon their fellow students for support.

“Resilience means rebounding from setbacks and struggles, putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward,” said Dr. Landry.

Processional music was performed by the LSMSA Mixed Ensemble under the leadership of Instructor of Instrumentals, Theory and Composition Michael Young. The National Anthem was sung by Sophie Lee (’26), of Bossier Parish, and the LSMSA alma mater was sung by Elizabeth Porche (’26), of Ascension Parish. The senior class reflection was delivered by Senior Class President Blaise Albarez (’25), of St. Tammany Parish.
