    THE BULLSHIT BEING WRITTEN!!!! Lafayette parish schools have individual truant officer. I.E. Keller isn't a "Parish" officer she's ONE SINGULAR school's officer. now not saying she can't possibly have more than one school but the likelihood she's dealing with more than two is proof id like to see. There's so much more I want to say, but honestly, it's irrelevant when you're fighting headlines that only want to hide the true issue... LOUISIANAS EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM IN GENERAL

    Why do they lie so much??? I started working with their people to help a family and when they lost their uniforms in hurricane Ida. I called and called trying to keep them connected with the nops social workers. Nothing. Those kids still aren’t in school.
