Daily Schedule

Schedule information as we move to a new campus in 2025 will be updated prior to the start of the program in June. Until that time, a sample schedule from the 2023 program may serve as as a guide for future programs.

Louisiana Boys State is a fast-paced, packed-schedule program in which Citizens are involved in the learning, interacting, and leading from the moment they arrive on campus to the time they depart at the end of the week.
