Staff report
RUSTON, La. — The Lincoln Parish School Board has called a special session for this afternoon to fill the vacant seat in District 9 and to approve the search process for the new superintendent.
Earlier this month, long-time LPSB member Lynda Henderson of District 9 resigned her seat to serve on the Lincoln Parish Police Jury following the passing of her husband Joe Henderson, who had filled the seat since first being elected in 1992.
In the same meeting, LPSB Superintendent announced his retirement from his position effective June 30, 2026.
Prior to the special session, there will be a finance committee meeting to continue discussions of a sales tax plan that the school board is considering putting forward for a public vote in the near future.
See agenda below.
