Tonight, let’s stand shoulder to shoulder in the stands, celebrate our community, and show that unity is stronger than division.
We are KHS. We are Pirate Proud. We are Community Strong. We are UNSTOPPABLE. ☠️

The safety of our students and community is our top priority. Recently, we have had too many children running around the stadium unattended, especially under the bleachers. This is unsafe and will no longer be allowed.
Effective immediately:
Parents are expected to watch their children at all times during the game.
No middle school or elementary student will be allowed to purchase a ticket without a parent present.
All high school students must show their current school ID at the gate. No exceptions.
No student is allowed to sit in the reserved ticket section unless they have a reserved ticket. Any student found in this section without a ticket will be asked by a police officer to leave the game.
We want our football games to remain a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone. Thank you for helping us make this possible.☠️


A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Dan Dartez and Superintendent Tommy Byler for making this the very first turf field in Vermilion Parish, and to Mrs. Kimberly Etie for bringing this unforgettable idea forward to our admin team.
We are grateful to see the community come together in such a powerful way. Today proved once again that we are forever Pirate strong and community strong. 🏴☠️




• Senior athletes will be presented with their jackets.
• We’ll announce the 2025 KHS Homecoming Royalty! 👑
Senior parents are invited. Please enter through the front entrance of the school and pass through the metal detectors. Arrive a few minutes early to help us start on time.
