SUMMARY: The Caddo Parish School Board conducted meetings to appoint an interim District 7 representative and discuss a school bus tire contract. Jerry Bowman Jr. was elected with seven out of 11 votes after competing against Carla Buntyn, Pamela Jackson, and Linda Smith. Bowman’s public service experience helped him secure the position.

However, after a lengthy discussion, the board approved the bid 8-3, deciding to revisit the contract next year.
