Ouachita Parish Schools were proud to recognize 34 students who were chosen as Student of the Year for their respective schools. The 5th, 8th, and 12th grade students attended an luncheon in their honor where the top 5 elementary and top 3 middle were honored prior to announcements of the 3 district finalists. Special appreciation to our sponsors for the event: Centric Credit Union (title sponsor), Ascent, Drax Biomass, Ouachita Valley Federal Credit Union, Senator Jay Morris, ULM, and West Monroe-West Ouachita Chamber of Commerce.
