East Baton Rouge Parish schools will NOT report back to school this week. School will start after Labor Day, September 6th. Cleve Dunn Jr. Reached out to myself and the group of brothers we consistently advocate with to set up a meeting with Superintendent Drake. Cleve let Mr. Drake know we would appreciate school being pushed back because families are still struggling to recover. Mr. Drake was informed we were prepared to protest outside the school board office and hold a press conference of need be, but that our desire is to be able to avoid all that by doing what is in the best interest of families and children in our parish. Mr. Drake didn't make any promises, but he listened. Hats off to Mr. Drake and the school board for granting our request.

Yep, it was all him. Not due to mold or buses. quote:LINK
Drake sent out a memo late Monday explaining the decision. Mold and transportation issues are the main reasons, he said.
"Our transportation department is out of order because of flooding. Our bus fleet is depleted and our drivers are dispersed," Drake wrote. "We also got word today that four additional schools have mold that were not flooded. We have 11 facilities that were impacted by water."

I have no words for the type of idiot this man is. I never had respect for him, but after he said "you reap what you sow" on camera directed at law enforcement concerning the death of Alton Sterling, there was no turning back.
