School prep

The opening day for St. Landry Parish public schools is Aug. 8 and it was easy to find custodians at work preparing for that day. At Eunice Junior High School Tyrie Pickney, was pressure-washing the sidewalk at the school near the gymnasium on Tuesday afternoon. At Central Middle School, Benjamin Truitt was painting the office of assistant adminstrator J. St. Andre. (Photos by Harlan Kirgan)
