East Carroll Parish School District leaders celebrated the completion of the new administration building last week with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. In attendance were (from left) John Shoemaker and David Norris, school board members; Meagan Brown, superintendent; Jackie Folks, school board president; Georjean Jackson, former board president; Wanda Jackson and Shirley Fairchild, school board members, Gene Edmondson and Pam Harvey, former school board members. Begun in September 2021 and beset with several delays, the new building will house staff and administrators who previously worked in the offices located on Brown Street. The school board has decided that repairs to that building are too expensive and it will be demolished to make way for school bus parking.
