In August 2016, students from Galvez Primary, Lake Elementary, and St. Amant Primary School were sent to the old campus because the schools in Ascension Parish were flooded. RPCC also offers an Early College program for high-school freshmen to obtain their associate degree and high school diploma at the same time.
