Tonight at the Vermilion Parish School Board meeting, the school board will name a temporary board member in District B.
At the start of the month, Chris Gautreaux resigned as the school board member after accepting a Civil Service job with the City of Abbeville. He had been the school board member for almost 12 years.
The new person will sit in Gautreaux’s old seat for five months until a special election is held.
