Board President/Members Comments
Babineaux thanked everyone and Board Members for valid, exciting, and crucial
discussions held throughout the 2011-12 school year. He also reminded everyone about
the Employee Banquet being held on June 21, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. at the Cajundome
Convention Center.
Cockerham congratulated the new employees and thanked staff for putting in the
hard work to bring the recommendations to the Board. He also congratulated Billy
Guidry and the Finance Department for receiving the Certificates of Excellence in
Financial Reporting Awards for Fiscal Year 2010-2011.
Bouillion shared information regarding the stats from the LDOE on State rankings
for students and schools in Louisiana. He said the changes being made and passed down
to this district are difficult but have to be made. He also said that he will continue to
support both Governor Jindal and Dr. Cooper because he believes that the children’s
education is of the utmost importance.
Chassion encouraged staff to have some type of dialog with the teachers at
Northside High regarding the recent changes. He also formally expressed his apologies
to the employees who were listed on the Approval of Personnel Changes for June 20,
2012 and in particular to the new Director of Human Resources, Bruce Leininger. He
wants to assure everyone that it was not done maliciously, but wanted to make sure that
everything was done right the first time.

Beasley welcomed and congratulated employees new to the district and
employees who are changing positions. He said that he was very pleased with the
selections made.

by the Board and said that we are all working for the benefit of the students. He also
said that change is inevitable and that we cannot get used to failure and mediocrity. We
expect the best from everyone. He also wanted the staff and administrators to know that
they have the support of the Board in assisting them in their responsibilities and expects
the system to continue moving forward.
