The Ouachita Parish School Board confirmed that all 37 district campuses have reviewed and updated their crisis-management plans to comply with state requirements under Act 3 34 23.
"As of 10/23/2025, this letter is written to report that all schools have confirmed that the school's crisis management plans ... have been thoroughly reviewed and updated in compliance with act 3 34 23 regular session," Mr. Fremont said as he presented the signed confirmation letter and the attached forms. Board members voted to confirm receipt and directed Fremont to forward the documentation to the Louisiana Department of Education.
Fremont told the board the review updated risk assessments, response procedures, communication protocols, roles and responsibilities, training and drills, support services and camera labeling. The board's vote was procedural—confirming the district has met the statutory submittal requirement—after which staff will transmit the packet to LDOE.
The board did not debate substantive changes to individual school plans during the meeting; Mr. Fremont said copies of the signed forms had been attached to his letter and provided to the board. No timeline for LDOE acknowledgment was given.
