Milton's Message

May 22, 2019

In the summer, the days were long, stretching into each other. Out of school, everything was on pause and yet happening at the same time, this collection of weeks when anything was possible. ~ Sarah Dessen

UPCOMING EVENTS:

West Feliciana Parish Schools' Job Fair ~ May 30

School Board Meeting ~ June 18

Reflecting on Last Week

Once again West Feliciana is recognized as a top district in the state. West Feliciana Schools had over 68% of their 2017-18 graduates attend a 4-year or 2-year College or University during the 2018-19 school year. This makes us 2nd in the state for percent of students attending college after high school! #wearewestfel

Mr. Kevin Beauchamp was recognized at our May School Board Meeting for 19 years of service as a board member for District 2 and 7 years as School Board President. Mr. Beauchamp resigned from our board this month in order to serve on another board. We are grateful for his service to our students, parents, and community. Pastor Milton Coats served as our interim board president for our May board meeting. He did an outstanding job!

Each school celebrated their custodians who work so hard to make sure our schools are clean, safe, and run properly for our students and fellow employees! No party is like a West Fel party because a West Fel Party never stops! Our custodians at all of our schools prepare, plan, and host one event after another without every slowing down, and keep the schools running for their students and faculty everyday. We are grateful for our hard working custodians.
