After appeals from Mayor Wendy Perrette, education leaders and law enforcement professionals, the LHSAA reversed its decision from last week that would have moved the Bogalusa High School Lumberjacks final game of the season to a neutral location.
On Monday, Perrette, Police Chief Kendall Bullen, Bogalusa Superintendent of Schools Lisa Tanner and others signed an agreement that puts a security plan in place for athletic events at BHS.
LHSAA had based its previous decisions on safety concerns.
Perrette said she appreciated how swiftly community leaders came together to make this happen, and she was grateful to the principals of District 7-3A for their willingness to quickly reconsider the decision.
Bogalusa will host Albany High School this Friday.
