Mount Carmel, Vermilion Catholic and tennis have all been an important part of Bill Broussard’s life.
Those three things came together this week when the two schools dedicated the campus tennis courts in Broussard’s honor.

The next day after Tommy Byler was named the new superintendent of Vermilion Parish public schools, Denise Lotief was named the interim principal at North Vermilion High School.
Before his promotion, Byler was the principal at North Vermilion, and Lotief was one of two assistant principals.
Lotief has been an assistant principal at NVHS for the last six years.
She will remain the interim principal until a permanent one is hired.
Byler is expected to platoon back and forth from the central office and North Vermilion High for the next week or two.

The Vermilion Parish School Board is now leaving it up to the principals of each school, to decide on what type of face mask is acceptable or not acceptable to worn by students.
Last week the school board created a new mask policy that will let students and staff wear face coverings that contain references to the school system (i.e., name or insignia) or individual schools within the system (i.e., name or mascot), which are approved by the principals.
However, the face mask or face covering still has to be solid with only the school name, logo or mascot written on it.
