RAYVILLE — The Richland Parish School Board met on Nov. 12, 2024, and approved the Oct. 8, Oct. 24 and Oct. 29, 2024 meeting minutes for publication in the Official Journal.

The motion carried with unanimous support from members present.
The board recognized Mr. Daniel Morgan, listed in the record as an RVA student, as the November Student of the Month and Ms. Lucy Dianne Carter, listed as an RVA teacher, as the November Employee of the Month.
