LAFAYETTE PARISH
The Lafayette Parish School Board is holding a custodian job fair today, offering opportunities for those seeking employment within the school district.
The event is scheduled from 1 to 4 p.m. at the school board office located on Rue Iberville. Attendees are encouraged to bring a current résumé along with a high school diploma or transcript.
Those seeking more information can contact the school board’s maintenance department at 337-521-7419.
Staying in Lafayette Parish, a ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for 10 a.m. at 201 Camellia Blvd. The $3.3 million project began in January 2024 and was completed in April. The newly constructed 7,000-square-foot facility replaces an older fire station formerly located at 101 Montrose Ave.
Officials say the new station is expected to enhance emergency response times and improve overall service in the area.
