Allen Parish School Board

I read where the Superintendent wants to create two Asst. superintendent jobs. It is also noted that 12 to 14 jobs in the parish that people have retired from would not be refilled. I guess they will use money from these jobs to pay the two positions. I don’t have a problem with this no one is being forced to retire. People that do have a problem with it should look at the board members. They approved the plan by a vote of 7-0 and 6-0. Not one board member cast a no vote. One board member abstained from voting once and one abstained twice. Seems that if the board is informed they may have put up a little more resistance. I am pretty sure that they knew what was to come up at the meeting. If people aren’t satisfied get out and vote are run for school board. If they have to keep not filling positions, what could happen next maybe consolidation is a possibility are go to a four day week. People need to get involved and be active in their community.
