The Louisiana Legislature has introduced Senate Concurrent Resolution 15, a formal commendation celebrating the 100th graduating class of C.E. Byrd High School in Shreveport. The resolution, proposed by Senator Pressly, recognizes the school's centennial milestone, with festivities scheduled from June 5 to June 7, 2025, culminating in an "Ultimate Reunion" on June 7.

The resolution commends the faculty, staff, students, and alumni for their contributions to the school over the past century. It also mandates that a copy of the resolution be sent to the school's principal, Gerald "Jerry" Badgley, as a token of recognition.

While the resolution is largely ceremonial, it highlights the significance of educational institutions in fostering community and celebrating historical milestones. The centennial celebration is expected to draw attention to the school's legacy and its impact on the local community.

As the resolution moves through the legislative process, it underscores the importance of honoring educational achievements and the role of schools in shaping future generations. The celebration is anticipated to strengthen alumni connections and promote community pride in C.E. Byrd High School's long-standing history.
