In 1903 Mr. Ambroise Delcambre opened the Delcambre Acadamy, soon renamed Delcambre Commercial College.

"In 1903 the Railroad Station was also changed to Delcambre. Also in this year, Mr. Ambroise Delcambre organized at Meadows a private school called the Delcambre Academy and later the Delcambre Commercial College. Forty two pupils were enrolled at the beginning, and the total for the year was 153. A dormitory was built to house the many out of towns students who were living in private homes. Military training, music, and commercial courses, among others, were offered." *


"The Delcambre Commercial College opened with 42 students, some of them living in a dormitory used to house out-of-town students. But the school did not last. On Oct. 1, 1908, the board of directors voted to sell the college to the Delcambre Special School District of Vermilion Parish for $6,500. It was to be used as a school for the district, which was partly in Vermilion Parish and partly in Iberia Parish." *

Total enrollment for the year was 153. Military training, music, and commercial courses, among others, were offered.
