Rapides Parish School Board is a school district headquartered in Alexandria, Louisiana.
It covers all of Rapides Parish.
History
By 1993 the district had established a secondary school for students with behavior issues, called Redirection Academy. That year, the U.S. federal court system stopped the district from establishing a magnet school for academically advanced students.
Jeff Powell became the superintendent in 2019. In 2024, the board of trustees voted to extend his term by four years. Seven board members voted in favor and two voted against.
