Opelousas Senior High School was recently presented with a United States flag that was flown over the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., at the request of Congressman Cleo Fields.
The flag and accompanying certificate recognize Opelousas Junior High School's participation in the Congress to the Classroom school visit, highlighting the importance of civic engagement and education. This recognition is especially meaningful as our nation celebrates it 250th anniversary in 2026.
We extend our sincere appreciation to Ms. Lavonya Malveaux for presenting this special gift to our school!
📸 Pictured with Ms. Malveaux is Ms. Alanna Barbour, 7th & 8th Grade Principal.
