25 Year Service Award Recipient
Congratulations to Deputy Alex Montgomery for 25 years of dedicated service to LPSO and the Citizens of Lafayette Parish.

Deputy Montgomery is a detective within Criminal Investigation Division.

Teacher Thanks LPSO for Supporting Education!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support of education, teachers and students in Lafayette Parish. I was one of the 12 finalists in the recent Lafayette Education Foundation (LEF) Teacher Awards ceremony. Without your support, it is possible that these types of ceremonies would not happen, and that teachers would not get to realize that they have people rooting for them in the community. I feel so wonderful that I was a part of this, that so many people value education. The positive effects of being a small part of this will stay with me for so long. It has strengthened my resolve to do as much as possible for the students of Lafayette Parish. Once again, thank you for all that you do to support education.

Yolanda B. Archambeault, M. Ed, Lafayette High
