An Organization of Educators Promoting Excellence, Unity, and Professionalism.

Message from President Champagne

Greetings LAFEPA Colleagues,

It is truly an honor to serve as President of the Louisiana Association of Federal Education Program Administrators. Although our name has changed, our organization remains steadfast in our commitment to success.

Indeed, success of any organization is dependent upon the active participation of its members and their willingness to support its mission. LAFEPA consists of a strong network of over 250 federal program administrators. Our Executive Committee is committed to ensuring the level of excellence that you have come to expect as a result of our predecessors. LAFEPA's Planning Committees consist of over 40 members that have a cause that truly goes beyond themselves. As a result of the Executive and Planning Committees, LAFEPA is able to host two conferences per year that are informative and relevant to the daily work that you do while providing meaningful opportunities to build a strong network with others. Furthermore, we are blessed to have a multitude of sponsors for our conferences.

With the end of ESSER funding, districts will once again encounter financial challenges to meet the needs of ensuring the education of all. Yet, we are resilient! As we begin to embark on the 2024-2025 school year, I as well as the members of the Executive and Planning Committees are committed to our great organization.

Please call or email any committee chairperson or myself to share your suggestions, or feedback to improve LAFEPA.

I will always be grateful to this organization for the knowledge that I have acquired as well as the relationships that I have built.

Very truly yours,

Scott Champagne
