The board heard a proposal for a technical dual credit cosmetology program with Lamar State College Orange beginning with the Class of 2026; the program uses an embedded adjunct (Mrs. Owens), requires no financial or testing prerequisites for CTE students, and would be retroactive to the fall semester pending board approval.

Josh Culpepper, CTE Director, described a new technical dual credit program partnership with Lamar State College Orange (LSCO) that would allow participating students to earn college credit in cosmetology beginning with the Class of 2026.

Culpepper said CTE students do not need financial or testing prerequisites to enroll, that cosmetology teacher Mrs. Owens will serve as the embedded adjunct, and that applications have been submitted with retroactive admission for the fall semester contingent on board approval.
