Project Lead the Way

Saint Paul's School is pleased to announce a Project Lead The Way partnership and sponsorship for the Biomedical Sciences Program. Dr. and Mrs. Oubre of the Pontchartrain Cancer Center have generously donated $60,000 to assist in the funding of the academic curricula. Thank you to the Oubres for their generosity and commitment to St. Paul's School.

From St. Paul's School: "The Cancer Center and their personnel will be resources for the students involved in the program. The PLTW Biomedical Sciences Program is aligned with national learning standards, following a proven hands-on, real world problem solving approach to learning. The students explore the concepts of human medicine, and are introduced to a variety of topics including: physiology, genetics, microbiology, and public health. Kathy Oubre, Pontchartrain Cancer Center’s Chief Operating Officer stated, “David and I are blessed and honored to be able to give back to Saint Paul’s School, a community that has meant so much to our family over the years. Moreover, this sponsorship allows us the opportunity to be a part of further educating those Saint Paul’s students who have an interest in biomedical science.”
