At Wednesday’s regular meeting, the members of the Lafayette Parish School Board will consider a contract for interim superintendent Irma Trosclair – and her requests to reorganize the top tier of the system’s administration.

Trosclair is asking the board to reorganize the top posts in the system, at a cost of $4,572.00.

The reorganization would include:

  • Elimination of the Assistant Superintendent – Administration position
  • Elimination of the Assistant Superintendent – Curriculum and Instruction position
  • Reinstate the Chief Administrative Officer position and revise the job description to report to the newly created position of Associate Superintendent instead of the Superintendent directly.
  • Reinstate the Chief Academic Officer position and revise the job description to answer to the newly created position of Associate Superintendent instead of the Superintendent directly.
  • The Chief Academic Officer and Chief Administrative Officer will report directly to the superintendent until the Associate Superintendent position is filled in the next fiscal year.
  • Elimination of the Social Studies/PE/Health Specialist position.
  • Elimination of the Director of Leadership Development position.
  • Eliminate the Transformation Zone Administrator position.
  • Creation of the Curriculum Administrator position and job description.
  • Creation of the Associate Superintendent position and job description.

Here’s the new organizational chart:
