How can you get involved with choosing the next Caddo Parish superintendent?

Caddo Parish School District is looking for a new superintendent and community members are welcome attend a series of meetings designed to gather input on the selection process.

According to the school district, these meetings will provide a platform for parents, students and other stakeholders to share their thoughts and priorities for the district's leadership.

On Thursday, June 20, the school board announced that McPherson & Jacobson, LLC. have begun the process in selecting the next superintendent.

This search comes after Dr. T. Lamar Goree-- long time Caddo Parish superintendent announced he would be leading the Duncanville Independent School District for the 2024-2025 school year on April 1.

The school board has made a goal to select the next superintendent by Oct. 1.
