The board members expressed their appreciation for Mr. Jordan's willingness to step into public service, with glowing recommendations from local leaders, including Bossier City Councilman Brian Hammonds.

During the session, board members cast their votes, with unanimous support for Mr. Jordan, marking a significant moment for both him and the board. "Welcome to the Bossier Parish School Board," President Newman announced, confirming that Mr. Jordan will be sworn in at the next board meeting on August 7, 2025. This swearing-in will officially recognize his appointment, although the paperwork will reflect the date of the meeting.
