Submitted by the Lafayette Parish School Board
LAFAYETTE, LA (October 9, 2024) – Civic Solutions Group (CSG), the strategic planning firm hired by the Lafayette Parish School Board, has presented its initial recommendations on how to optimize the district’s schools. CSG proposed 14 specific actions, linked here, for consideration by the Board.
Additionally, CSG has launched a community survey and announced upcoming feedback sessions to gather input from parents, teachers, and stakeholders. LPSS Board President Britt Latiolais emphasized the importance of community participation, stating, “The recommendations from CSG are essentially the first draft. The next step is gathering input from parents, teachers, and stakeholders so planners can use that information in crafting the final recommendations for Board consideration.”
The survey is anonymous and available on the district’s website, lpssonline.com.
Community members are encouraged to participate by completing the survey or attending one of the scheduled feedback sessions:
- October 28 at 6 PM at Northside High
- October 29 at 6 PM at Acadiana High
- October 29 at 6 PM at Southside High
CSG has been working on this project since April 2024. To view presentations from prior meetings or to learn more about the initial recommendations, visit the District Optimization page on lpssonline.com.
