Lafayette High's Future Business Leaders of America at the State Capitol
FBLA students from Lafayette High School recently visited the Louisiana State Capitol in recognition of their outstanding achievements. During the visit, students were presented with an official proclamation signed by Governor Jeff Landry declaring February 8–14, 2026 as National FBLA Week, recognized nationwide.
Members of the FBLA Executive Committee, along with additional chapter members, toured the Governor’s Office and the State Capitol, gaining a firsthand look at state government.
FBLA Lafayette High is proudly ranked Top 10 in the Nation as a Champion Chapter for 2025, an incredible accomplishment that reflects the leadership, dedication, and hard work of these students and their advisor.
Congratulations to FBLA Lafayette High for representing their school and Louisiana with excellence on a national stage.
2026 Louisiana CASA Executive Leadership Workshop
Honored to present at the 2026 Louisiana CASA Executive Leadership Workshop, where executive directors and board leaders from across the state came together for a day of connection, collaboration, and strategic leadership.
During my session, I shared updates on the Governor’s Office programs and statewide initiatives focused on improving outcomes for children and families across Louisiana. CASA leaders play a critical role in ensuring children involved in the child welfare system have strong advocates, and I appreciate the opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue with such dedicated leaders.
Thank you to Louisiana CASA for the invitation and for your continued commitment to serving children and families across our state
