Student representative reports on September events, donations and extracurricular wins across Beauregard Parish
Isabelle Palermo, student representative to the Beauregard Parish School Board, delivered the district’s September report Wednesday, highlighting extracurricular events, academic activities and a local technology donation.

"The month of September has been a fun and exciting month for schools across Beauregard Parish," Palermo said at the start of her report. She said more than 150 guests attended a grandparents' day at one campus, junior high sports seasons were wrapping up, and several fall teams were beginning competition in October.

Palermo said sophomores and seniors are preparing to attend a college day at McNeese State University and a technical school day at SOWELA to help students explore post‑graduation options. She also described campus improvements such as new air‑conditioning cabinets and construction of new junior high restrooms.

The report noted a private donation facilitated by AT&T and United Way of Southwest Louisiana: 50 HP laptops were donated for K–12 students, with at least some recipients identified from East Beauregard High School. Palermo also detailed extracurricular successes: marching bands won championships at contests including Pickering High School, robotics teams placed second in a scrimmage at the STEM Center in Lake Charles, and junior high teams reported strong tournament records.

Several schools were cited for special projects and contests: fourth graders attended Project WET at the fairgrounds; FFA hosted senior citizen day at the parish fair; and students placed in the parish fair poster and essay contests. Palermo closed by noting homecoming events, a powder‑puff game, and a newly launched baseball program at DeRidder Junior High.

Palermo’s report was presented as informational; no board action was taken on the items she described.
