The Lincoln Parish Journal is providing our local schools an opportunity to submit nuggets from what’s going on at their respective schools in order to get more information out on its students, faculty and staff. The information below comes directly from those schools. Any school wishing to provide content each week can email to LPJNewsLA@gmail.com.
