Legislative Study Committee on LHSAA

The House Legislative Study Committee on the Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) convened on July 29, 2025, to address ongoing concerns regarding the division of public and private schools in high school athletics. The meeting highlighted significant dissatisfaction with the current split, which many believe has negatively impacted the competitive landscape of high school sports in Louisiana.

During the session, committee members discussed the historical context of the split, which was initially implemented to address competitive imbalances. However, some members expressed that the split has not achieved its intended goals and has instead created further issues within the state's athletic programs. One member, Mister Beaux, articulated strong opposition to the split, stating that it has been "extremely detrimental" to high school athletics.

The discussion also referenced past instances where private schools, despite lower enrollment numbers, dominated state championships in higher classifications. This situation was cited as a primary reason for the split, but the committee members are now questioning its effectiveness and considering potential reforms.

As the meeting concluded, the committee acknowledged the need for further evaluation of the LHSAA's policies and their impact on student-athletes. The next steps will involve gathering more data and feedback from stakeholders to determine the best path forward for high school athletics in Louisiana.

Just came to the board to say this but you beat me to it.
Isn't that pretty much all of the privates in BR now? I mean why would any of those kids want to attend an EBR school? They will never get the same level of coaching as they might get at Uhigh, Dunham, Catholic, etc. Chance of going D1 are amplified at a private.

That prek - 12. That's small when you look at just their high school numbers.

Bingo.... Had the split not happened CHS would still be done by Thanksgiving.
I'm hearing 5:30 pm at the opening of the new school.
Seriously? $100,000+ A 30-year teacher makes far less. I know a coach has crazy hours but wow.

The team with the most points.
Where are you getting this information? 40%.... link please.
You are correct. They won't go to EBR but they may go to an Episcopal school or create their own homeschool pod.
