Board directs RFP for staffing audit of central office and family services
Summary
The board voted to direct administration to issue RFPs for an audit of central office and family services staffing, aiming to confirm appropriate staffing levels and identify potential reallocations; members requested to be cc'd on RFPs.
The Tangipahoa Parish School Board voted to direct administration to issue requests for proposals for a staffing audit focused on central office and family-services functions.
Board members debated scope and purpose: several said the audit should focus on non-instructional positions (central office, family services, maintenance) rather than individual school sites because auditing campuses would be more costly and time-consuming. Proponents framed the audit as a stewardship tool to confirm whether the district is properly staffed, not as a pretext for job cuts. "This is to ensure that we are properly staffed in the central office and family service," one board member said, adding that previous firms had provided comparative staffing suggestions. The motion included an instruction that administration cc the full board when RFPs are sent out. The board approved the RFP direction by roll call, with one abstention recorded.
