LAFAYETTE, La. (AP) - The Lafayette Parish School Board meets this week to discuss what major construction and repair projects to fund with $30 million from a bond sale.

The school board authorized the sale of $30 million in bonds to fund school improvement projects Oct. 24. The school district's staff has presented board members with a list of possible projects to fund with the money, which board members will discuss Wednesday.

The bond sale can't move forward until board members reach an agreement on how to spend the money.

The board faces a tight timeline to begin projects in Youngsville, where school officials say new classroom space is critically needed to respond to continual growth in the city.
