The Allen Parish School Board meeting got heated Monday night as the board deadlocked the vote for a new superintendent for an unprecedented fifth time.
It’s been a tie between Instructional Supervisor Brad Soileau and Transportation Supervisor Kenney Courville.
The votes remained the same. Pete Cavenah, Greg Monceaux, Carolyn Manuel and Kevin Tyler cast their votes for Courville while the other half - Sally Moreaux, Cathy Farris, Karen Reed and Carleen Mahfaffey - voted for Soileau.
Over the last month, not a single person on the board has changed their vote, leaving what happens after current superintendent Kent Reed leaves up for discussion.
