Board meetings and strategic plans from St. Landry Parish School District
The board discussed a policy update regarding medically necessary behavioral health services for students, which allows parents to request services from providers at school during instructional time. Requirements for these providers, including insurance, liability coverage, and background checks, were reviewed. Additionally, the board discussed the management of lease properties, addressing concerns regarding abandoned or blighted properties, maintenance compliance, firearm usage, and unauthorized use of land. A proposal to hire an external manager to oversee property compliance, revenue collection, and maintenance was presented to help address these issues.
The meeting focused on two primary agenda items. First, the committee discussed and recommended a partnership with the New Orleans Center for Hope and Change to provide school-based behavioral health services to students, aiming to improve accessibility for counseling and psychiatric support. Second, the committee debated the ratification of boundaries for the Opelousas Special Taxing District, a measure previously approved but delayed due to leadership changes and unresolved boundary definitions. The discussion highlighted the necessity of these structures for local funding of facilities and educational needs.
The board held a public hearing regarding the consolidated annual operating budget followed by the regular meeting. The session included resolutions of sympathy for deceased former employees and relatives of current staff. The board honored retiring teachers and support personnel with recognition. The superintendent provided updates on the superintendent advisory group applications, upcoming holiday schedules, and recognized various national observances for the month. Additionally, the board approved a behavioral health services policy and discussed a land assessment project, ultimately deciding against an unnecessary survey of property the board already owns.
