Lafourche Parish School Board approves multiple contract renewals and raises SRO cost share
The Lafourche Parish School Board approved a package of contract renewals and amendments at its meeting, increasing the district's share of the school resource officer contract and authorizing multiple software and service renewals.

Board members voted to amend the existing school resource officer contract between the Lafourche Parish School District and the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office so the district will pay 75% of officer salaries and benefits instead of the current 58%. The board recorded the item on the agenda as Item A and approved the amendment as presented; a formal tally was not provided in the transcript.

The board also approved the following procurements and renewals (identified on the agenda by letter):
- Item B: Awarded a bid for chiller compressor replacements to KRM Investments (award described as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder). (Motion approved.)
- Item D: Extended the bus radio rental agreement for two-way radios for the 2025–26 school year with an estimated monthly cost of $2,541.
- Item E: Renewed Destiny library manager and resource software licenses from Follett for $52,812.22 for the 2025–26 fiscal year.
- Item G: Renewed identity management software from Identity Automation for $37,407 for the 2025–26 fiscal year.
- Item I: Renewed ERP software support services from Tyler Technologies for $155,785 for the 2025–26 fiscal year.

Separately, the board amended the fee cap on the All South Consulting Engineering LLC contract, increasing the current contract fee cap by $783,100. The transcript records the item and that the motion carried.

Board members and staff framed the items as routine renewals and necessary contract management. Staff presented cost figures and contract durations during the agenda presentation; board members moved and approved the motions as listed on the agenda. The transcript does not record detailed roll-call vote tallies for each item beyond several notations that motions carried.

The approvals will affect the district's operating budget for 2025–26 and change the district's share of payroll costs for school resource officers. The transcript did not specify whether the amended SRO cost share alters any existing memorandum of understanding or the effective date of the change.

The board did not provide in the recorded remarks a detailed funding breakdown for every approved item; where a dollar amount was recorded in the presentation, it is included above.
