Board affirms student expulsion after executive session; vote recorded
Summary
Following an executive session to hear an expulsion appeal, the Natchitoches Parish School Board returned to open session and voted to affirm the expulsion; the motion carried after a roll‑call vote with one member recorded as opposing.
The Natchitoches Parish School Board met in executive session on July 14 under Louisiana law to hear an expulsion appeal. After returning to open session the board moved to affirm the expulsion.
Board President made the motion to affirm the expulsion and the board recorded a roll‑call vote. One board member registered a dissenting vote during the roll call; the motion to affirm the expulsion was recorded as passing.
Because the matter was discussed in executive session, the board did not disclose details of the student’s case in the public meeting. The board’s public minutes record that it entered executive session under LARS 42:17(A)(7) for the expulsion appeal and later voted to uphold the previous expulsion decision.
